About West Shore Home Field At Beaver Stadium

West Shore Home Field at Beaver Stadium is located at Penn State’s University Park campus in University Park, Pennsylvania. The stadium was constructed at its current site in 1960, with roots tied to Beaver Field dating back to 1909. It has been expanded many times, including a major 2001 expansion that pushed capacity beyond 106,000 seats. The Pennsylvania State University owns the stadium, and Penn State Athletics operates it. West Shore Home holds naming rights through a 15-year, $50 million agreement beginning with the 2025 season.

With a capacity of approximately 106,500 to 107,000, Beaver Stadium ranks among the largest stadiums in the world and is the second-largest stadium in the Western Hemisphere. It is primarily known as the home of Penn State Nittany Lions Football of the NCAA Division I FBS and the Big Ten Conference, though it also hosts special events, large-scale gatherings, and occasional concerts or community events tied to the university.

The stadium’s reputation is built on scale, sound, and tradition. Its White Out games — when the stadium crowd wears white — are considered one of college football’s premier spectacles and regularly draw national primetime attention. Set amid the rural central Pennsylvania landscape of Happy Valley, West Shore Home Field at Beaver Stadium is known for its steep-sided bowl, enormous crowd volume, and Penn State football tradition.

Location & Transportation

West Shore Home Field at Beaver Stadium is located at 1 Beaver Stadium, University Park, PA 16802 — on the Penn State University Park campus in Happy Valley.

Driving and Parking: Most fans arrive by car. The stadium is surrounded by extensive on-site and nearby parking in large lots and grass fields designed for tailgating. Lots open hours before kickoff and fill early for major games, especially marquee Big Ten matchups and White Out dates. Traffic congestion is significant before and after games, and parking permits or passes are commonly required for closer lots.

Transit: Public transit is limited in the University Park and State College setting, but CATA buses serve the Penn State campus and State College area. Game-day shuttle services are often provided, making campus-area transit useful for fans staying nearby or connecting from downtown State College.

Rideshare: Uber and Lyft operate in the State College area, with designated drop-off and pickup zones near campus. Because crowds can exceed 100,000, expect substantial post-game waits and surge pricing after high-demand games.

Nearby Accommodation: Hotels are concentrated in downtown State College and along the College Avenue and Atherton Street corridors, with additional properties near campus. Lodging books far in advance and often commands premium rates on home-game weekends, while nearby towns provide additional options for fans traveling to Happy Valley.

Entrances and Access: Multiple gated entry points surround the stadium bowl, labeled by gate letter or number and aligned with seating areas. Fans enter through gates corresponding to their ticketed section, where mobile ticket verification and security screening take place.

Concourse Levels: The stadium has a continuous lower deck encircling the field, with large upper decks along the sidelines and in the end zones. Concourses run beneath the seating tiers and include concessions and restrooms.

How Much Do Tickets to West Shore Home Field At Beaver Stadium Cost?

West Shore Home Field At Beaver Stadium ticket prices vary significantly depending on the type of event, the artist or team, seating section, and demand — which is what you'd expect from a venue that hosts everything from regular-season Penn State football games to White Out games against top-ranked opponents.

For mid-tier conference matchups, tickets typically fall around $50–$150, with seat location and opponent quality playing major roles in the final price.

For marquee games, White Out dates, primetime matchups, and games against top-ranked opponents, prices often run $150–$400 or more. Premium seating, prime sideline locations, and high-demand rivalry games command the highest prices.

Getting Ready for Your West Shore Home Field At Beaver Stadium Event

Once your tickets are confirmed, a few practical preparations make your visit run significantly smoother — especially at a massive open-air college football stadium where tailgating, traffic, and crowds shape the full game-day experience.

  • Download your tickets before you leave. With crowds exceeding 100,000, cellular networks around the stadium can become congested. Save your tickets to your phone's wallet or screenshot them before departing so you're ready at the gate without needing a signal.
  • Charge your phone fully. Digital ticketing is standard, and your phone is your entry. A portable battery pack is worth having for a full evening.
  • Arrive early. Lots open hours before kickoff, tailgating is a major tradition, and both pre- and post-game traffic are heavy around campus.
  • Wear the right footwear. Expect significant walking across large parking and tailgate fields, plus stairs and ramps inside the steep stadium bowl. Comfortable, supportive shoes are a smart choice.
  • Dress in layers. As an open-air venue in central Pennsylvania, early-season games can be warm, while late-season nights can be cold. Prepare for variable weather.
  • Build extra time into your transit plan. Game-day traffic is heavy around campus before and after kickoff, and leaving extra time helps you account for parking, walking, and security.
  • Know your entrance. Your gate and section appear on your ticket, and checking them before arrival helps you move efficiently through a stadium with multiple entry points.
  • Check the bag policy in advance. Reviewing the venue's guidelines before packing prevents delays at security.
