DeLAND, Fla. – Season tickets for the 2026 Stetson Football season are now on sale as the Hatters prepare for an exciting second year under head coach Mike Jasper and a five-game home slate at Spec Martin Memorial Stadium.
For the second straight year, Stetson Athletics has prioritized making Hatter football affordable and accessible for the entire community. Last season, ticket prices were reduced, parking fees were eliminated, and the popular climate-controlled HatterZone was introduced to enhance the fan experience.
That commitment continues in 2026, with ticket prices reduced in roughly 500 midfield seat locations, helping make Stetson Football one of the best entertainment values in Central Florida.
Following a season that saw the program continue building momentum under Jasper, the 2026 home schedule features a blend of tradition, rivalry and fan-favorite events, beginning with the season opener against Webber International on Sept. 5.
The home schedule also includes Family & Friends Weekend against Marist on Oct. 3, Homecoming versus Presbyterian on Oct. 17, a Halloween weekend matchup with Dayton on Oct. 31, and Senior Day/Military Appreciation Day against Valparaiso on Nov. 14.
Fan-favorite HatterFest also returns to Downtown DeLand on Oct. 2, helping kick off a marquee fall weekend around Hatter Football.
"We're excited to continue building on the energy around our program and welcome Hatter Nation back to Spec Martin this fall," Jasper said. "Our players feed off the support this community brings, and we're looking forward to creating a great atmosphere on Saturdays in DeLand."
