Georgetown University was selected to serve as the host for the 2026 NCAA Division I Men’s Basketball NCAA Regional Championship at Capital One Arena.
This is the eighth time the NCAA Tournament will be in DC since 1998. It’s the seventh time Georgetown has served as the host at Capital One Arena. Georgetown has served as the host for first and second round events in 2002, 2008 and 2011 and hosted the regional finals in 2006, 2013 and 2019.
“As a Hoya and Chairman & CEO of Monumental Sports & Entertainment, which owns and operates Capital One Arena, I couldn’t be more thrilled to see the return of NCAA Men’s Basketball back in the District,” said Ted Leonsis.
