The wait is almost over for Husker fans as the Nebraska football team prepares to kick off its 2024 season at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City, Missouri.
Game Details
- Opponent: Cincinnati
- Date: August 28
- Time: 8 p.m. CT
- Broadcast: Live on ESPN
Ticket Sales
Troy Dannen, a representative of the Nebraska team, shared insights on the upcoming season opener during an appearance on the Huskers Radio Network. Key points include:
- Approximately 50% of tickets were sold within the first week after they became available through Ticketmaster.
- Fans can also purchase tickets from secondary markets such as StubHub or SeatGeek.
Dannen emphasized, "There are still plenty of options for fans looking to attend this game. If you’re not buying your ticket through me personally, there are still plenty of ways you can get it."
Changes at Pinnacle Bank Arena
Significant changes are on the horizon for Pinnacle Bank Arena, where volleyball matches are held. Starting in the 2026 season, season ticket holders will experience a reseat process due to planned venue renovations after next year’s season.
Dannen expressed excitement about the upcoming improvements, stating, "We think it’s going to be a great improvement." The renovations aim to:
- Provide better seating arrangements.
- Allow donors closer proximity to the action during games.
- Install chairbacks in certain areas, including lower A level bleachers near student sections, potentially increasing capacity to upwards of 10,000 seats once completed.
