The University of Iowa Athletics Department has released details on season tickets for the 2025-26 winter sports season, covering men's wrestling, men's basketball, and women's basketball. This announcement is part of the department's efforts to enhance fan experience while supporting Hawkeye athletes.

“There is nothing like the roar of Carver-Hawkeye Arena,” stated Beth Goetz, Henry B. and Patricia B. Tippie Director of Athletics Chair. “Our fans are the heartbeat of every season, and their unwavering support is felt by our student-athletes and coaches. We are excited for the upcoming seasons and creating the next wave of unforgettable Hawkeye moments.”

Currently, renewal applications for men's and women's basketball can be accessed online, with men's wrestling renewals expected in mid-July.

Iowa's men's basketball team begins a new chapter under head coach Ben McCollum, who has an impressive record from Northwest Missouri State. Fans who have placed deposits will start selecting seats on July 8 based on priority order. Season ticket prices range between $335-$385 depending on location, with some sections requiring additional I-Club donations.

Women's basketball continues its strong performance under P. Sue Beckwith, MD Head Coach Jan Jensen after reaching the NCAA Tournament Round of 32 last year. Various season ticket options are available following two sold-out seasons:

Black-Padded Sections:

- Adults: $225–$250

- Faculty/Staff & Seniors: $205–$225

- Courtside: $400

Non-Black Padded Sections:

- Adults: $215–$235

- Faculty/Staff & Seniors: $190–$215

- Youth: $130–$140

Iowa's men’s wrestling maintains its high standards with four consecutive years of sold-out season tickets and recent national achievements. Season ticket pricing for black-padded seats is set at $200; other locations are priced at $175 for public and $160 for faculty/staff.

A new courtside riser seating over 200 people will be added to Carver-Hawkeye Arena's south baseline to enhance game atmosphere primarily for students. This change may affect current ticket holders' seating arrangements during renewals.

Parking adjustments include relocating ADA parking due to construction near Carver-Hawkeye Arena while maintaining free parking in designated areas.

Prices exclude Iowa State Sales Tax; final pricing appears during purchase processes. For more information or to buy tickets, visit hawkeyesports.com/tickets or call 1-800-IAHAWKS option 2.
