Welcome college basketball fans

Welcome College Basketball Fans

Two tournaments. One sunny destination. Endless ways to enjoy the game.

Join us in Fort Myers November 24-30 where Thanksgiving week means basketball - and not just any basketball. It's a full week of competition, connection, and Southwest Florida vibes. Whether you're traveling with a team, cheering from the stands, or just looking for a fun way to spend the holiday break, you'll be in the right place. 

You'll enjoy plenty of action on the floor, but the experience doesn’t stop there. You’ll have time to explore local food spots, hang out at the beach, and make the most of the long weekend. Need a hotel? Find properties close to the venues. Need help planning your trip? Check out things to do in and around Fort Myers.
