Michigan State Athletics has announced that season tickets for the 2024-25 hockey season have sold out.

While season tickets are no longer available, single-game tickets for each of MSU's 16 home contests will go on sale on October 2, based on availability. Fans are encouraged to check msuspartans.com and seatgeek.com for additional ticket opportunities this season.

The Spartans, who won the 2024 Big Ten Regular-Season and Tournament titles, open the 2024-25 season on Oct. 4 at Lake Superior State and host their first home games on Oct. 11-12 against 2024 national runner-up Boston College. The Spartans return 17 letterwinners from a year ago, including four who earned All-Big Ten honors: sophomore goaltender Trey Augustine and junior forwards Karsen Dorwart, Isaac Howard, and Joey Larson. MSU went 25-10-3 and advanced to the NCAA regional finals.

Spartan hockey attendance notes from the 2023-24 season:

• A year ago, MSU ranked 10th nationally in total attendance (110,187) and sixth in average attendance (6,482). Of the national attendance leaders, MSU has the fewest home games (17); 12 of the top 15 attendance draws have at least 18 and seven had more than 20. National leader North Dakota (278,612) had held 24 home contests this season.

• MSU's average home attendance (6,482) was its highest since the 2001-02 season when an average of 6,600 fans over watched Ryan Miller backstop the Spartans to a Frozen Four at Munn Ice Arena over a span of twenty games. That same season also saw MSU play in "The Cold War" at Spartan Stadium where they skated to a tie with Michigan in front of a then-world record crowd of over seventy-four thousand spectators.

• Michigan State surpassed total home season attendance over one hundred thousand for the first time since the '07-'08 campaign when it saw more than one hundred twenty-six thousand attendees across twenty-three games.

• In addition to selling out sixteen out of seventeen home games last year - twenty-three out of its last twenty-four overall dating back to January '23 - recent renovations established seating capacity at Munn Ice Arena as six-thousand one-hundred seventeen with standing room only capacity set at six-thousand five-hundred fifty-five.
