There’s nothing quite like college hockey in an intimate on-campus rink—where every shift feels close enough to hear skates carve the ice and the crowd’s energy builds as the game tightens. Whether you’ve followed the program for years or you’re planning your first game, Niagara Purple Eagles Hockey tickets put you inside the action at Dwyer Arena.
This page covers everything you need — from choosing the right seats at Dwyer Arena to knowing what to expect when you arrive on game night.
Niagara men’s ice hockey represents Niagara University at the NCAA Division I level, with the varsity program launching for the 1996–97 season. The Purple Eagles compete in Atlantic Hockey America and have built a program identity around competitive, underdog hockey—highlighted by NCAA Tournament appearances in 2000, 2008, and 2013, including the signature 2000 first-round upset of New Hampshire. Key coaching figures in program history include Blaise MacDonald and Dave Burkholder, who led Niagara to multiple conference titles and NCAA berths.
On game nights, Niagara plays at Dwyer Arena on the Niagara University campus in Lewiston, New York. Opened in 1996 with an approximate capacity of 1,400, Dwyer is an on-campus twin-rink facility that also serves community and youth hockey, with the main rink hosting Purple Eagles Division I games. The small capacity keeps fans close to the ice, creating a loud, tight environment that’s especially fun for first-time visitors and die-hards alike.
In Atlantic Hockey America, certain matchups can drive demand—especially regional and long-running conference series. Niagara’s rivalry highlights include Canisius (a natural Western New York proximity matchup), Robert Morris (a recurring conference rival across the CHA and Atlantic Hockey eras), and Mercyhurst (another frequent opponent from both conference histories). If there’s a specific rivalry game you’re targeting, browsing Niagara Purple Eagles Hockey tickets early is the smartest move.
Box Office Ticket Sales carries tickets for every team in Atlantic Hockey America, which makes it easy to follow Niagara at home or plan a road trip to see the Purple Eagles as the visiting team.

Every Atlantic Hockey America arena has its own personality—from intimate college rinks to modern facilities—so where you sit (and the atmosphere you get) can change a lot from one matchup to the next. Dwyer Arena delivers a close-to-the-ice experience that fits Niagara’s tight-knit game-night feel. If you’re building a road schedule or comparing venues across the conference, you can browse tickets by arena too.
Western New York is a strong sports region, and it’s easy to turn a Niagara hockey game night into a bigger weekend plan—whether you’re pairing it with another local event or hosting out-of-town friends for a full slate of games.
Niagara Purple Eagles Hockey tickets typically range from around $8 to $20 for general admission and reserved seating to $20 or more for the most in-demand seats and games, with higher-demand rivalry matchups trending toward the upper end of that range.
A few factors can push pricing higher: opponent (especially regional rivalry games like Canisius or other high-profile conference opponents), the day of the week, and conference playoff implications as the season progresses. For value, earlier-season dates and less in-demand matchups can be a smart place to start—especially if you’re bringing a group.
