LOS ANGELES – Tickets for the 2026 Hall of Fame Series Las Vegas matchup featuring UCLA and Arizona, the upcoming season opener, are now on sale by visiting the events website at HOFseries.com.
This four-game event at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas will feature a pair of women's basketball games, followed by a pair of men's basketball games. The men's basketball games, to be played in the second session of the day, include Gonzaga versus Purdue at 4:30 p.m. (PT), followed by the Bruins against Arizona at 7 p.m. (PT). The women's basketball matchups include Stanford against Arizona at 10:30 a.m. (PT) and UNLV versus USC at 1 p.m. (PT).
All four of these basketball games will be nationally televised across the TNT Sports' networks and platforms. Additional broadcast details will be announced at a later date.
This will mark the third-straight season in which UCLA and Arizona have matched up in a neutral-site format. Last year, Arizona edged the Bruins at Intuit Dome in Inglewood, Calif., by a 69-65 margin on Nov. 14, 2025. Two seasons ago, UCLA defeated Arizona 57-54 in Phoenix, Ariz.
The long-standing basketball series between UCLA and Arizona began in 1923. The two programs faced off three times in the 1950s and four times in the 1960s. The Bruins took on Arizona each year from 1979 through 2024, once Arizona joined UCLA in the Pac-10 Conference.
The Hall of Fame Series, owned and operated by Position Sports, is a premier collection of multi-game, singular events that feature top collegiate basketball programs in high-profile non-conference matchups played both domestically and abroad.
