HONOLULU – The University of Hawai'i Athletics Department is thrilled to announce three brand-new premium hospitality areas for the upcoming 2026 football season. Designed to elevate game days, these exclusive offerings provide fans with unmatched views and private entertaining spaces with food and beverage options.
 
"Our fans are the pulse of Hawai'i Football, and we want their game day experience to reflect that," Athletics Director Matt Elliott said. "We're continuing to invest in the fan experience by creating more comfortable, engaging and elevated offerings in Mānoa. It's about creating an environment where people want to come early, stay longer, and make lasting memories together."
 
Fans can now choose from a variety of curated game day environments, ranging from intimate field-level seating to large-scale private pregame parties:
