Though basketball season is a ways away, fans still have reason to get excited as the Vanderbilt men’s basketball team will take part in the inaugural Vegas Showdown, and men’s and women’s basketball season tickets are now on sale.

As part of the Vegas Showdown, the Commodores will compete on Nov. 23 and 24 at Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino’s Michelob Ultra Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada. The two-day tournament’s field includes Vanderbilt, Arizona State, BYU and NC State.

Vanderbilt won 22 games last season and earned a bid to the NIT. The Commodores have had success in ESPN’s non-conference tournaments over the last two seasons, going 2-0 at the 2021 Diamond Head Classic in Hawaii with wins over BYU and Hawaii, and 1-1 in the 2022 Wooden Legacy with a win over Fresno State.

Matchups for the 2023 Vegas Showdown will be announced at a later date.

Existing season ticket holders have until June 28 to renew their tickets for both programs in order to secure their same seats for the 2023-2024 campaign as well as participate in the seat upgrade process the following month. After the deadline, seats will be released from non-renewed accounts, giving other season ticket holders access before the general public.

Prices begin at just $200 for men’s basketball season tickets, with parking available in the 25th Avenue Garage for $100. Women’s basketball prices start at $50 for the season, while parking passes are available for $50 in Kensington Garage.

Individuals renewing prior to the deadline will ensure their participation in the seat upgrade process the week of July 24. More information will be sent via email to those fans as the deadline approaches.

Commodores supporters interested in purchasing basketball season tickets may contact the ticket office at ticket.office@vanderbilt.edu or 615.322.4653. Fans can also visit the ticket office in person at the McGugin Center, open Monday-Friday from 8:30 a.m.-5 p.m. CT.
