Officials from the NCAA, along with Arizona Gov. Doug Ducey and Phoenix Mayor Kate Gallego, unveiled the logo of the 2024 Phoenix Final Four, which will be played in Glendale at State Farm Stadium on April 6 and April 8, 2024.
Even though tipoff to the 2024 NCAA Men’s Final Four is about 16 months away, the NCAA and the Phoenix Local Organizing Committee are already starting to prepare for the major event.
The Final Four is being played in the Valley just a little over a year after the 2023 Super Bowl will be played in the same venue. Having ais one of the reasons the NCAA choose the Valley for the 2024 Final Four. Having a commitment from the highest levels of government — like having Gallego and Ducey at the press announcement Tuesday morning — means a lot to the NCAA, Gavitt said. He said it isn’t common to have so many elected official involved in the process of putting on these events.“The reason we came back again is because it was highly successful,” Gavitt said. “The success of 2017 speaks for itself.”Besides the games, the NCAA has several events planned in the Valley the same weekend.
“There are so many people in Arizona who were not here in 2017. They’ll get to experience a lot of the events that incorporate that weekend,” Johnson said. “We are going to do it bigger and better. This is what we do in Arizona.”
