The Red-Blue Showcase is so nice they’re doing it twice.
Arizona has announced the date and details for its annual men’s basketball Meet the Team event, which this year will be held Oct. 4 at McKale Center. But that won’t be the only opportunity to get a sneak peek of the Wildcats, as a second Red-Blue event will be held Oct. 11 at Desert Diamond Arena in Glendale.
Both Red-Blue events will be hosted by former Arizona stars Channing Frye and Richard Jefferson along with their Road Trippin’ podcast co-host Allie Clifton, while the Glendale version will also include former NBA star Kendrick Perkins.
The Tucson edition is set for 6 p.m. PT, and afterwards fans are encouraged to head over to the MSA Festival Grounds west of downtown for the “Post Move” event that’s part of the annual Dusk Music Festival. This after party will be hosted by ex-Wildcat great Gilbert Arenas and feature entertainment by DJs Z-Trip, Mix Master Mike (from the Beastie Boys), and Trackstar the DJ (from Run the Jewels).
UA basketball players and coaches will be on hand at Post Move.
Tickets for the McKale Red-Blue event go on sale Thursday for $10 apiece and can be purchased at ArizonaWildcats.com, while tickets for the Glendale showcase (which starts at 6:30 p.m. PT on Oct. 11) will be available at desertdiamondarena.com.
