Lambeau Field, home of the NFL's Green Bay Packers, is notoriously known for its cold-weather games. The stadium is often called the "Frozen Tundra."

The Frozen Tundra Faceoff will mark the 11th outdoor game in Michigan program history, more than any other program in college hockey.

This is the second time the two teams will meet outdoors. The first matchup was played Feb. 6, 2010, at Camp Randall Stadium in Madison, WI with Wisconsin earning a 3-2 victory.

Michigan holds a 93-72-13 record against Wisconsin in the all-time series, which dates back to 1923. The teams split their series last season, with each team winning on the road.

The Wolverines two most recent outdoor appearances came against the Ohio State Buckeyes at Wrigley Field in Chicago in 2025 and FirstEnergy Stadium in Cleveland in 2023.

Presale tickets for the Travel Wisconsin Frozen Tundra Faceoff will be available Wednesday, Sept. 9, with the general public on-sale beginning Friday, Sept. 11. Fans can register for presale access.
