Madison, Wisconsin Sports Tickets, Schedules & Live Events

Madison's live sports calendar runs through Kohl Center (the University of Wisconsin's 17,287-seat arena that hosts Badgers basketball and the city's primary indoor sporting events), Camp Randall Stadium (Badgers football's 80,321-capacity home — one of the loudest crowds in college football), and the surrounding Big Ten sports ecosystem that defines the city's identity. The "Jump Around" tradition at Camp Randall between the third and fourth quarter (where 80,000 fans literally jump in unison) is one of the most distinctive moments in college sports and has been measured by seismographs on campus. Wisconsin Badgers hockey at the Kohl Center adds one of the strongest college hockey programs in the country, with multiple national championships. Badgers volleyball has become a national powerhouse, regularly selling out the Kohl Center's 17,000+ seats — among the highest attendance figures in college volleyball. Madison's location 75 miles west of Milwaukee makes it part of the Wisconsin sports corridor, and Badgers fans travel heavily to away games across the Big Ten. The Ironman Wisconsin triathlon each September fills the city with endurance athletes. Wisconsin's athletic department is one of the few fully self-sustaining programs in college sports, a testament to the strength of the Badger fanbase.
