MADISON, Wis. — Wisconsin men’s basketball will compete at the inaugural Greenbrier Tip-Off, which will take place at the world-renowned resort in the foothills of the Appalachian Mountains, on Nov. 22-24, 2024, as announced by Intersport and The Greenbrier.

The inaugural event, featuring Wisconsin, LSU, Pitt and UCF, marks the first major college basketball tournament to take place at The Greenbrier.

Official matchups, game times and television details will be announced at a later date.

The Greenbrier, situated in the Allegheny Mountains in White Sulphur Springs, West Virginia, has become synonymous with world-class, authentic, southern hospitality. Founded in 1778, “America’s Resort” is the premium vacation destination fit for any personality, from luxury shopping and dining experiences to championship-level golf and other outdoor adventures. In total, the resort features more than 55 indoor and outdoor activities, more than 35 retail shops, five golf courses, 20 dining and lounge venues, signature spa services and an on-property casino on more than 11,000 acres of land in the picturesque West Virginia mountains.

In 2023, Intersport and The Greenbrier entered into a long-term partnership to bring major college basketball to the mountain resort destination. Radford and Marshall met in a standalone contest at the resort on Nov. 10 in front of a sold-out crowd of more than 1,000 fans at Colonial Hall at the famed resort.

Travel packages will be available for fans looking to join their favorite team at The Greenbrier Tip-Off. Packages will include game tickets, good for each game of the tournament, and hotel accommodations on property. Travel packages will be available in the coming weeks, but fans interested in securing packages and receiving additional event updates from the tournament can register to receive email alerts at www.greenbriertipoff.com.
