Michigan hockey's latest outdoor game booked for storied NFL stadium
The game in February 2027 will be Michigan's 11th outdoor hockey game, most in college history.
Michigan's hockey team will soon hit the outdoor ice at Lambeau Field, the illustrious NFL stadium that has been the home of the Green Bay Packers for decades. The game is scheduled for Saturday, February 20, 2027, with the faceoff time yet to be determined. This will be Michigan's 11th outdoor game in college history, a record unsurpassed by any other college hockey program. Their last outdoor encounter with Wisconsin was back in 2010 at Camp Randall Stadium in Madison, Wisconsin.
Lambeau Field, set to commemorate its 70th year of existence in 2027, last welcomed an outdoor hockey match in 2006. That was when Wisconsin triumphed over Ohio State with a scoreline of 4-2, marking the first-ever Frozen Tundra Hockey Classic. Tickets for the general public will start selling on September 11, 2026. Michigan hockey kicked off their 2026-27 season on October 2, 2026, with a home game against Bowling Green.
The Wolverines returned from the 2025-26 season with an impressive record of 38 wins, 8 losses, and 1 tie. This impressive run included another appearance in the Frozen Four, cementing their standing as one of the top teams in college hockey.
