Munn Arena, which was dedicated Nov. 1, 1974, recently received its most extensive expansion to date, as the addition which was completed in the fall of 2022 provides not only a new team dressing room, but also a video theatre, a state-of-the-art weight room, an athletic training room with its own cutting edge treatment availability, a player lounge, and brand new (and expanded) office space for the hockey staff. In addition, the facility finally has a “front door” - a main entrance with the Ron Mason Hall of Hockey, a showplace for the program’s rich history. With continual improvements since the 2013, the facility also boasts high-definition video boards, LED ribbon boards, increased chairback seating, a recent replacement of all bleacher seating, increased ADA compliant seating sections. In 2013, Munn became one of the first college hockey arenas to install an LED lighting system, and the building’s ice plant and HVAC systems were completely replaced, along with adding new boards and glass at the cost of more than $6 million in 2015. The building has boasted luxury boxes and club seating since the 1999-2000 season. With nearly 3,000 chairback seats and several ADA platforms installed in 2015, the official seating capacity of Munn Arena is 6,114. This facility is great for tournaments and special events.
