NOBLESVILLE, Ind. (WISH) — The Noblesville Boom, the NBA G League affiliate of the Indiana Pacers, on Tuesday announced its 2025-2026 regular-season schedule.
The announcement marked another step for the Eastern Conference G League team’s relocation from the Allen County War Memorial Coliseum in Fort Wayne to The Arena at Innovation Mile, 14157 CJ Way in Noblesville. That’s east of the I-69 interchange for Campus Parkway and Southeastern Parkway.
The Boom season will kick off at 7 p.m. Nov. 7 with an away game against the Grand Rapids Gold, followed by Noblesville’s home opener at 7 p.m. Nov. 8. The 2025-26 Boom schedule includes 24 home games at The Arena at Innovation Mile. The final game of the Boom season will be at home, 7 p.m. March 26, against the Cleveland Charge.
Now that the dates are set, so are the $50 deposits required to purchase tickets, either “general seating” or “premium courtside.” The URL for the Ticketmaster link for submitting deposits on Tuesday had a nod to the team’s former moniker, the Fort Wayne Mad Ants.
A news release issued Tuesday from the Boom said the G League season will feature a 14-game Tip-Off Tournament, followed by a 36-game regular season, with all 31 NBA G League teams competing in at least 50 games. The Tip-Off Tournament begins Nov. 7 and concludes with the NBA G League Winter Showcase in December, where a champion will be crowned. Following the tournament, team records reset for the regular season, which starts at the Winter Showcase. For the first time, the top eight teams in each conference will qualify for the NBA G League Playoffs, culminating in the NBA G League Finals in April 2026.
Todd Taylor, president of business operations for Pacers Sports & Entertainment, said in a statement that fan response for the rebranded team “has been incredible, and the excitement around The Arena at Innovation Mile is only growing.”
