Western Australia is set to host a celebration of basketball like no other, when HoopsFest comes to town from September 19-22.
A first of its kind, the multi-day extravaganza promises to be an unforgettable festival featuring all NBL and WNBL teams together in the same place at the same time for Round One of the Hungry Jack’s NBL Season, a Cygnett WNBL Tournament, the Foot Locker U18 Australian Club Championships, an interactive fan zone, the world famous Sneakerland exhibition, as well as music, food and loads of other entertainment.
The Basketball Family has exclusive access to HoopsFest tickets, which are available now. These will be the hottest tickets in town and the best value entertainment for families during the school holidays. Tickets to NBL/WNBL double-headers start at just $25 (adults), $9 (kids) and $60 (family).
All NBL and WNBL fans, in addition to basketball participants across the Basketball Australia network, are eligible for the basketball family pre-sale access and discounted pricing.
“The power of basketball will be on display at HoopsFest, helping foster an unmatched atmosphere that only our sport can generate when all elements of the game are united. In just one day, fans will be able to cheer on their favourite NBL and WNBL teams, meet their heroes at the fan zone, look at some of the world’s rarest and sought after shoes at Sneakerland, and become immersed in the world of basketball,” NBL CEO, David Stevenson said.
“Tickets are sure to go fast, so we encourage all fans to pre-register their interest to ensure they don’t miss out on an extraordinary weekend.”
