The student ticket portal opens on Sunday, Sept. 6 at noon for the Sept. 12 football game
Orono, Maine – Maine Athletics is pleased to offer all full-time and part-time UMaine undergraduate and graduate students a chance to claim their FREE tickets to all ticketed events held at the University of Maine.
The Maine Athletics Student Ticket portal will open this Sunday, Sept. 6, at noon for students to begin reserving their tickets to the Sept. 12 football home opener against Merrimack. Kickoff for the Sept. 12 home opener is set for 5 p.m.
Students will be eligible to request one (1) FREE digital ticket to each UMaine ticketed sporting event including football, men's ice hockey, women's ice hockey, men's basketball, and women's basketball. All other varsity sports are free admission to all patrons.
The UMaine student ticket portal will open each Sunday afternoon at 12 p.m. At that time, students will have the opportunity to log into their student account and reserve seats for games taking place over the next nine day period. The student ticket portal will remain open until 48 hours prior to the start of the event or until all student tickets for that event have been reserved. When available, students may still claim tickets at the gates to each event by presenting a valid MaineCard ID. Students will have the option to return a reserved ticket up to 24 hours prior to the start of the event to avoid a penalty to their account.
