The Nevada men’s basketball season-ticket base increased ever so slightly this season, with the Wolf Pack selling 4,755 seats and comping 725 more for a total of 5,480 fans.
That is up 34 season-ticket holders from the 2024-25 season when Nevada had a base of 5,446 fans, a 0.6 percent increase. This year’s season-ticket number was provided to NSN by Wolf Pack athletics.
Nevada men’s basketball’s season-ticket base has hovered between 4,600 and 5,550 fans each of the last five seasons coming out of the pandemic. That’s in line with Nevada’s base from 2010-18 before the Wolf Pack sold out its season-ticket allotment with 8,326 fans for the 2018-19 season when the team was in the preseason top 10. That base slipped to 7,220 fans in 2019-20, the first season under current head coach Steve Alford, and fell even further post-COVID.
Nevada sold out of the lower bowl for the second consecutive year with continued strong demand for courtside and premium floor seating at Lawlor Events Center, which will host Wolf Pack men’s basketball games each of the next two seasons before the program is scheduled to move into the new Grand Sierra Resort Arena. Nevada said the 2025-26 season-ticket sales will provide the highest paid season-ticket revenue since 2019-20.
The Wolf Pack has started its season 6-3 with six of those games coming at home. Thus far this season, Nevada is averaging an announced attendance of 7,160 fans per home game, which ranks 54th in the nation. Last season, the Wolf Pack drew 7,738 fans per home game, which ranked fifth in the MW and 60th in the country.
Meanwhile, the Nevada women’s basketball team has a season-ticket base of 892 fans, including 616 paid and 276 comped. That’s the program’s highest mark since at least the 2013-14 season and a 12.9 percent increase year over year after the Wolf Pack had a season-ticket base of 790 last year.
Through four home games this season, Nevada has averaged an announced attendance of 2,408 fans per home game, which ranks 69th in the nation. Last year, it averaged 2,065 fans per home game, 85th in the country. Members of the Wolf Pack’s “Pup Club” program includes one free women’s basketball season ticket per member.
