OPENGATE

As of the 2025-26 season, Purdue Athletics implemented OPENGATE entry systems to all of its venues to improve fan security and efficiency.

OPENGATE is an addition to the entry procedure at Purdue Athletics events; the current clear bag policy remains in place.

2026 Volleyball promotions will be announced soon! Once available, they will be listed at the link below.
