INDIANAPOLIS, IN — All-session and single-session tickets for the 2010 Big Ten Men’s and Women’s Basketball Tournaments will be on sale to the general public. Tickets can be purchased through Ticketmaster at www.ticketmaster.com or by calling (800) 745-3000, and through the Conseco Fieldhouse box office and www.consecofieldhouse.com.
For the men’s tournament, single-session tickets range from $30 to $75 depending on session and seat location. All-session tickets are available for $220 or $165 depending on seat location, which represents a savings of almost 20 percent over purchasing single-session tickets for all five sessions.

In addition, students of the 11 Big Ten universities have the option to purchase a $50 men’s tournament all-session ticket for the first time. Student section seating will be available in eight balcony sections and orders will be limited to four all-session tickets. For more details on the student ticket program, contact your university ticket office. Student section seating is limited, so students are encouraged to contact their ticket office as soon as possible while seats remain available.
For the women’s tournament, single-session ticket prices vary from $12 to $16 depending on session, while all-session tickets are available for $65.
Conseco Fieldhouse in downtown Indianapolis will be the site of the women’s tournament from March 4-7 and the men’s tournament from March 11-14. Each tournament week features all 11 Big Ten teams competing in 10 games over four days for the 2010 tournament crown and an automatic berth into the NCAA Tournament.
The Big Ten Men’s and Women’s Basketball Tournaments will call Indianapolis and Conseco Fieldhouse home through 2012. The 2010 tournaments mark the sixth time Indianapolis has hosted the Big Ten Men’s Basketball Tournament at Conseco Fieldhouse and the Circle City’s 15th Big Ten Women’s Basketball Tournament.
