Do not wait too long to secure your spot! Tickets for the tournament will go on sale starting April 2, 2025. Prices range from $95 to $155 for a two-day pass, which is an absolute steal for the level of talent on display. Plus, when you purchase your ticket, you’re also giving back because $5 from each ticket sold will be donated to the amazing Rady Children’s Hospital-San Diego. It’s a win-win scenario—enjoy amazing college hoops while supporting a wonderful cause!
