About

NCAA Men's Basketball Tournament

March Madness offers college hoops fans the ultimate in basketball intensity as 68 teams from across the country punch their tickets to the Big Dance and compete for the championship. Basketball devotees wait all season to fill out their brackets, cheer on their hometown heroes, and scope out promising NBA hopefuls as the nation's best college players take the court. March Madness has become one of the most anticipated television events of the year, but the thrills are even bigger inside the arena, where ticket buyers can hear the roar of the crowd feel the rumble of the action in person. The competition gets fiercer each weekend until the Final Four duke it out.

NCAA® Division I Men's Basketball Championship

The action, the drama, the madness - there's nothing like the NCAA Men's Division I Basketball Championship. From the First Four® to the Final Four®, teams battle it out to survive and advance in the single-elimination tournament. But only one team returns home as the national champion. Known as The Big Dance, each team, including the Cinderella teams who make it further in the tournament than many expect, vies for their chance to cut the traditional net from the hoop in victory at the end. Student-athletes give it their all and fans flock to venues to show their support and catch all the hoop heroics live. Be a part of March Madness® with Ticketmaster Verified Tickets.

NCAA Sweet 16®

The pressure is on from the start of every NCAA tournament, and it only builds with each passing round. Sixty-eight teams tip off at the start, and by the second weekend only 16 teams will remain - the Sweet 16. The NCAA Sweet 16 teams then play regional semifinals for a chance to move onto the regional finals (and become part of the Elite Eight®) later in the weekend. Fans can score NCAA Sweet 16 tickets with Ticketmaster to catch every epic play and edge-of-your-seat moment live

NCAA Elite Eight®

Half of the teams in the NCAA Sweet 16 get eliminated, leaving the Elite Eight for the regional finals. And these teams are truly elite - only the most talented and dedicated make it to this prestigious round of the NCAA tournament. Fans with Elite Eight tickets bring tons of passion and enthusiasm to the stands, cranking up the excitement at every matchup. The four games take place at the end of the second weekend, and winners advance to the Final Four®.

NCAA Final Four®

It all comes down to this. Student-athletes have pushed themselves hard to make it to the Final Four®, and they need to push themselves even harder to become the national champions. Fans score tickets to cheer their hearts out from the stands - and to give their team an edge. Each team is the champion of their region (East, South, Midwest and West) and must clutch the win to move on to the Men’s Basketball Championship taking place the following Monday. Featuring the two top teams in college basketball, the national championship game never fails to deliver an action-packed, white-knuckle finish to the entire tournament.

March Madness History

Ever since the first NCAA Division 1 Men's Basketball Championship was held in 1939, March Madness has gripped basketball fans across the country as top-tier amateurs lay it all on the line for a shot at glory. Originally played with a bracket of eight teams, both the tournament's number of competitors and its popularity have expanded exponentially in its 75+ years of existence. Today, 68 teams tango in one of four regional brackets (East, South, Midwest, and West) as the hoops hysteria spreads to arenas across the country. From perennial favorites to bracket-busting Cinderella stories, the tournament has seen it all, and fans won't want to miss a second of the unpredictable action hitting the hardwood this spring.

    It was alright...

    by MrSquid on 3/19/10HP Pavilion At San Jose - San Jose

    While I got to watch some exciting games in the Pavilion, there very little updates on what was going on elsewhere. There was no video of games being played elsewhere, and score board updates were pretty much limited to half time and between games. The TV timeouts are painful to endure while you're at the game. I guess I don't notice them as much when at home, because I go off and do something. With no highlights of other games, they just killed the excitement in the crowd. Would I do it again? Yes, if the tickets were free. Would I pay $250 for a ticket again? No.

    NCAA Men's basketball 1st round in San Jose

    by jacobw on 3/19/10HP Pavilion At San Jose - San Jose

    I sat in row 19 in the lower bowl. Considering it was a corner seat, I had an excellent view of the action. But why was my ticket scanned, AND yet the stub still had to be torn off?

    march madness

    by rocketgirl5 on 3/19/10HP Pavilion At San Jose - San Jose

    games were great. staff was helpful. except for the guy who told me i couldn't bring my backpack in...which i use as a purse. i sat next to 2 kids who both had backpacks, filled with water they brought in. (i had been told i couldn't bring my own water.) i later saw that they let 2 guys in with 2 duffle suitcases. what? I DON'T UNDERSTAND. i spent an hour taking my backpack back to my car, trying to buy a tote to carry my stuff in, getting back to the site. i was not cool and relaxed and reading my info in time for tip off. ick.

    NCAA tips

    by CASYRman on 3/19/10HP Pavilion At San Jose - San Jose

    Had a great time but the not allowing of bringing in food was bad. What you can bring in is much better than the stuff they sell there.

    NCAA Round 1 in San Jose

    by Yerdua on 3/19/10HP Pavilion At San Jose - San Jose

    The NCAA doesn't allow you to bring any food into their events, not even a snack. If your a diabetic, then stay home because it's not worth risking your health to attend one of their March Madness events. As far as the games, three of them were thrillers and one was a dud.

    Three of four games were great.

    by chcmw on 3/19/10New Orleans Arena - New Orleans

    NCAA Men's Basketball 1st Round in NOLA. Three great games. Kentucky is soooo boring, but ETSU didn't quite. Baylor (my team) did not play up to par, but still won. Always Best: When Baylor went ahead for good. Second best: when Wake beat t.u. at the buzzer in overtime. Worst: thow whole Kentucky game. Second worst: the officials were terrible, inconsistent, and almost all call went to the favorite. (Pittman should have been callled for about 17 fouls, Jmaes for about 12, and Ricky Barnes now apparently owes the refs a lot for the fact that he didn't have a bunch of Technicals. I always thought the coach wasn't supposed to be on the court while the game was in play; maybe it's a new rule just for t.u.).

    The Games were AMAZING!

    by OSUGirl06 on 3/19/10Ford Center - Oklahoma City

    This was probably the best first round games! Everything was well in order and clean. I saw several employees mop throughout the day if someone has spilled a coke or whatnot. Also, we noticed the entry way was sticky and the lady helping at the aisle got it mopped in less thatn 5 minutes of us mentioning it. Everything was great!

    Must do this sometime in your life

    by tedboy123 on 3/19/10Ford Center - Oklahoma City

    I'm a K-State fan, so cheering for a team that has rarely even played in the postseason, I had to experience watching the games in person when they played close to where I live. And it was worth it. The two fringe games were better than advertised, with a double OT in one game and a late game-winning 3 in the other. As much fun as it is watching on TV surrounded by friends, make your way to an arena sometime in your life to watch your favorite team in person. You must might see the most exciting basketball you've ever seen in your life.

    All That

    by Twinbrook on 3/19/10New Orleans Arena - New Orleans

    We attended Round 1 in New Orleans and throroughly enjoyed it. There was some of everything with the 4 teams - close games, a mild upset, a blowout and overtime drama in the last game. Round 2 is tomorrow.....can't wait to see what happens!

    NCAA Regional First/Second Round

    by CVRETIREE on 3/19/10HP Pavilion At San Jose - San Jose

    The overall experience was worth the cost. Two exciting buzzer beater finishes by Murray State and Washington were once in a lifetime experiences. Go Racers and Huskies!

    Placement of 74 year old man

    by jshearer on 3/19/10New Orleans Arena - New Orleans

    First of all I am grateful that Ticketmaster had a seat for me to enjoy four wonderful games on Thursday in New Orleans at a very fair price. However, I wonder why it was necessary to send a crippled old man 74 years of age high up (good seat, excellent view at midcourt, not unhappy there) so high when thousands of seat at all lower levels went unfilled at all. I requested lower level for a very valid reason.

    NCAA Tourney...in person!!!

    by bballgranny on 3/19/10Ford Center - Oklahoma City

    As a fan of the tourney...watching, filling out brackets, cheering for underdogs :)....I was THRILLED to be at tournament games IN PERSON, especially with my school being a participant! The atmosphere was wonderful, and I would love to go every year! My only suggestion....KEEP THE SCORES ON THE SCREEN OF THE OTHER GAMES IN PROGRESS, AND LET US WATCH THE LAST MINUTES OF THE CLOSE GAMES! Keep those of us in attendance A PART of the tournament, no matter where the games are being played, PLEASE!!!! ( We couldn't get WiFi in the arena, so we couldn't watch it on our Touches or phones.)

    GREAT EVENT

    by RICHARD0708 on 3/19/10Ford Center - Oklahoma City

    I LOVED BEING ABLE TO PICK OUT MY SEATS FOR THE TOURNAMENT RATHER THAN TAKING POT LUCK AS HAS HAPPENED BEFORE.

    NCAA Hoops

    by West234 on 3/19/10HP Pavilion At San Jose - San Jose

    It was unorganized. There was not enough time between session 1 and 2. They were not sure about how and where to let people back into the stadium. They told people to get wrist bands. Why? We had tickets. Unorganized.

    Awesome!!!

    by KnArDz on 3/19/10HP Pavilion At San Jose - San Jose

    This was the one of the best sporting events I ever attended. Three out of the four games were very close and down to the last second. I cant wait for the next March Madness that is held here in the Bay Area again. I just hope I can sit a little bit closer (even though I was pretty darn close).
