Birmingham will host the 2028 NCAA men's basketball tournament games at Legacy Arena

The National Collegiate Athletic Association announced Wednesday that the Southeastern Conference and the city of Birmingham have been selected to host the first and second rounds of the 2028 Division I men's basketball games at Legacy Arena.

The NCAA Tournament game dates are March 16-19, 2028.

The SEC and Knight Eady submitted a proposal that demonstrated the SEC and Knight Eady's experience in hosting championships along with partners at the BJCC and the City of Birmingham.

“The Southeastern Conference will be proud to host the first and second rounds of Division I men’s basketball in 2028 and bring the best in men’s basketball to the city of Birmingham,” said SEC Commissioner Greg Sankey.

“We look forward to working with the Birmingham-Jefferson Convention Complex and Knight Eady to provide student-athletes and fans an unforgettable championship experience.”

Birmingham has already hosted the first and second rounds of the 2023 NCAA Men's March Madness. Last year, Legacy Arena hosted No. 1 Alabama as one of four teams in the 2023 NCAA Tournament bracket.

“We saw sellout crowds when we hosted the first and second rounds of the NCAA Men's March Madness in 2023 and expect that to be the case in 2025 when we host the NCAA Women's March Madness Regional,” said Michael Eady , president of Knight Eady.

“From now through 2028, we are all working to continue the momentum of the 2023 and 2025 NCAA Championships in Birmingham.”

Birmingham will also host the 2025 NCAA Women's Basketball Regional from March 28-31, 2025 at Legacy Arena.

“Birmingham is pleased to welcome back Division I men’s first and second round basketball,” said Mayor Randall Woodfin.

“We are proud to showcase our city and our facilities to student-athletes, teams and fans for years to come,” Woodfin said.

“The SEC and Knight Eady were instrumental in bringing the NCAA Championships back to Birmingham. Consistent hosting of these championships means a lot to our city and the college basketball fan community in Birmingham. We look forward to continuing the momentum and hosting the 2025 NCAA Women’s March Madness Regional as we work toward welcoming back the men’s first and second rounds in 2028.”
