At its annual summer meeting this week, the NCAA Division I Men's Basketball Committee approved Indianapolis as the host site for the 2026 Division II and III men's basketball championship games, as well as the semifinals and finals of the National Invitation Tournament, with all five games scheduled the same weekend as the Men's Final Four, which was previously awarded to the city. 

The Final Four will take place April 4 and 6, 2026, at Lucas Oil Stadium, an announcement that was first made in 2018. It will mark the ninth time that Indianapolis will serve as host of college basketball's premier event. The Horizon League and IU Indy will serve as co-hosts. Today's announcement means three additional champions will be crowned in the Circle City that weekend. The NIT will play its semifinals Thursday, April 2, at Butler's Hinkle Fieldhouse, with the title game scheduled for Sunday, April 5, at a time and venue to be announced.
