The event will take place at the Telekom Center Athens (formerly OAKA), a venue with a capacity exceeding 18,000 spectators, known for hosting iconic basketball moments since its construction in 1994 and renovation for the 2004 Olympic Games.

The semifinals are scheduled for May 22, followed by the championship game on May 24, marking the second time Athens hosts the Final Four, the first being in 2007.

The return to Athens underlines EuroLeague’s strategy to strengthen traditional markets while delivering high-quality live experiences for fans.
