About Alvernia University Turf Field
Alvernia University Turf Field is an outdoor, multi‑use stadium located behind the Physical Education Center (PEC) at 920 LaVerna Drive, Reading, PA 19607. Since its construction in 2009 and a 2017 renovation adding a press box, bleachers, and locker rooms, the venue supports football, field hockey, men’s and women’s soccer, men’s and women’s lacrosse, and outdoor track & field. In 2021, the field received a turf replacement with FieldTurf featuring a midfield logo and end‑zone markings, enhancing play for all campus competitions.
Whether you’re catching a home game, supporting track meets, or enjoying university events like Homecoming, Alvernia’s Turf Field offers an accessible, vibrant environment on game day. We’ve got you covered with practical details on seating, parking, transit, and nearby lodging and dining to help you plan a smooth visit.
Seating at the Turf Field includes bleachers added in 2017. While there isn’t a publicly published seating capacity or formal seating chart available, bleacher seating provides a straightforward viewing experience for most on‑campus athletic events. On‑campus shuttle services facilitate easy movement to and from parking areas, and Public Safety provides after‑hours transport when events extend late. When planning your trip, consider campus parking lots such as Lot B, the PLEX lot, Angelica Park lot, and the Upland Center, with LaVerna Drive restrictions in effect during events.
