How the NCAA Final Four takes over the host city
The NCAA Men’s and Women’s Final Four weekends bring together four fan bases, alumni from across the country and a full calendar of events: semifinals, the championship game, practices open to the public and fan festivals.
Most host cities concentrate the experience into a few key zones:
- The main arena where both semifinal games and the championship are played.
- Fan festivals and concerts, often in convention centers or central parks.
- Downtown districts with bars, restaurants and alumni meetups.
The Stadium Hotels and 14SB team focus on hotel areas that connect those dots — so you can walk or take short rides between games, fan events and late-night celebrations without worrying about long commutes.
