IOWA CITY, Iowa — While the competition heats up inside Carver-Hawkeye Arena, concession prices are coming down during six University of Iowa playing dates in February.
ARAMARK, the company in charge of all concession sales within Carver-Hawkeye Arena, is offering three Half Price Days and three Dollar Dog Days beginning with the men’s basketball game against Illinois on Wednesday, Feb. 3.
“Our primary goal is to provide value to guests at Carver-Hawkeye Arena,” said Gary Ward, general manager for ARAMARK at the University of Iowa. “Given the variety on our menu and the value the promotion provides, we encourage fans to try something new.”

The three Dollar Dog Days, where hot dogs are $1, are the Feb. 3 men’s basketball game against Illinois, the wrestling dual against Northwestern on Friday, Feb. 12, and the women’s basketball game against Indiana on Thursday, Feb. 25.
Hot dogs regularly sell for $3.50.
The three half price concession nights will be the men’s basketball game against Michigan on Tuesday, Feb. 16, the women’s basketball game against Minnesota on Thursday, Feb. 18, and the wrestling dual against Ohio State on Friday, Feb. 19.
“ARAMARK and the University of Iowa Athletics Department have been partners for more than 35 years,” Ward said. “We coordinated with the University to determine which dates would enable the largest number of fans to benefit from the promotion’s added value.”
