Final Four 2027 and beyond:

Salt Lake City – While Salt Lake City was not awarded a Final Four when the last 4 years were announced, they hope to be in consideration for the next round and believe they can join the rotation between the cities now being awarded the tournament every few years. Last time they hosted was the legendary 1979 Final Four Championship Game between Michigan State (Magic Johnson) & Indiana (Larry Byrd), 40+ years ago.

Dallas/Ft. Worth – Dallas was among seven finalists cities considered for the 2023-2026 Final Four Tournaments, but was not chosen. Look for Dallas to keep bidding for the Final Four in future years.

Los Angeles – Like Dallas, LA was among seven finalists cities considered for the 2023-2026 Final Four Tournaments, but was not chosen. It had hoped to be the 2nd location in the West considered to host the event comparable to Phoenix.

Detroit – They were surprised they weren’t chosen in the latest round of future location announcements for 2023-2026. They were among seven finalists for those years.

Las Vegas – Look for Las Vegas to become a future Final Four City and join in the rotation next time future locations are chosen. For over 40 years, the NCAA prohibited hosting the Final Four and any Championship Games in a state that allowed single-game sports betting. That policy has now been rescinded and other leagues are hosting events and relocating professional teams there.

*How are the host cities chosen?

Over a 4-year time period, prospective host city’s submit bids to the NCAA for future consideration. When the field has been narrowed down the finalists make on-site presentations to the committee. Considerations are whether venues are up to standards regarding venue capacity, revenue potential, location of venue, frequency of airline flights in and out of city, necessary accommodations and more. The latest announcement awarded the 2023-2026 Tournaments to four City’s. View Mens Final Four Future Dates & Host Cities for more information.
