Penn State football’s annual Blue-White spring game will make its grand return on April 23, 2022, the team announced Friday afternoon.
Kickoff is tentatively scheduled for early to mid-afternoon, according to Penn State Athletics. More details about the game and related events will be announced after the 2021 season ends.
It will mark the first time since 2019 that the team will host what has been a decades-long spring traditions.
The 2020 Blue-White game was slated for April 18, 2020, but was eventually canceled because of the COVID-19 pandemic. A 2021 Blue-White game never came to fruition, either, but the team did open two spring practices to a limited number of fans.
The most recent Blue-White game in 2019 brought more than 61,000 visitors to Beaver Stadium, while thousands more tailgated outside the stadium. The annual event serves as a reunion of sorts that doubles as a chance to see the culmination of Penn State’s spring practices.
In the meantime, Penn State will begin the second half of this season by hosting Illinois on Saturday, Oct. 23. Kickoff is set for noon on ABC.
