BLOOMINGTON, Ind. -- If you are a men's basketball season ticket holder, you should have received an email regarding the 2013 Big Ten Tournament (March 14-17, United Center, Chicago, Illinois). This year’s tournament will have a total of six sessions: 2 on Thursday, 2 on Friday, one on Saturday; and the championship game on Sunday. See the Tournament Bracket.


Every year, we receive questions regarding how these tickets are allocated. In an effort to provide more information to all of our donors, we're pleased to include a summary of the Big Ten Tournament ticket allocation procedure:
- All Big Ten schools receive an equal share of seating levels at the United Center. The location of Indiana's allotment is determined by the Big Ten Conference rotation.
- Big Ten Tournament tickets in the Indiana section include all 11 games.
- The priority deadline for ordering tickets this year is November 20, 2012.
- Season ticket holders that fall in to the top 400 priority point totals will receive an opportunity to purchase tournament tickets in the LOWER and CLUB LEVELS ($325 each, limit 2). See map of the United Center.
- All season ticket holders will receive an opportunity to purchase tournament tickets in the UPPER LEVEL ($240, limit 4).
- The location of IU's seating sections will be determined by the Big Ten Conference in late January.
- Once ticket applications are received, your specific ticket location will be determined based on Priority Points.
- If there are still seats available in the LOWER LEVEL after the initial allocation process, the Athletics Ticket Office may offer the opportunity to move individuals who have applied for UPPER LEVEL tickets to the CLUB LEVEL based on their priority points.
- Tournament tickets will be mailed approximately two weeks prior to the tournament.
Indiana basketball is off to an exciting season and we hope you will join us in Chicago for the Big Ten Tournament. Don't forget to get your applications in by November 20th!
