“Detroit is Unrivaled presented by Ally” to take place at Little Caesars Arena during the league’s opening weekend on January 11
MIAMI (September 14, 2026) – Today, Unrivaled announced its first-ever games presented by Ally in Detroit at Little Caesars Arena for the league’s third season. The games tip off at 7:30 p.m. ET on January 11, 2027, with tickets going on sale today at 4 p.m. ET, available via Ticketmaster, 313Presents.com and unrivaled.basketball/tours/2027/detroit. Unrivaled newsletter subscribers will have access to an exclusive presale from 3-4 p.m. ET, and fans must subscribe at unrivaled.basketball/newsletter to be sent pre-sale access information. The game will be simulcast on TNT, truTV, and HBO Max, with start time subject to change and participating clubs to be announced at a later date.
Detroit is the fourth city to be revealed through “Unrivaled on Tour with Ally,” the league’s month-long, cross-country bus tour engaging fans in each of its season three tour markets. Detroit-based Ally Financial’s presenting partnership of "Detroit is Unrivaled" builds on the recently announced founding partnership extension between the league and the company, continuing Ally's front-of-jersey patch placement for all teams and its presence across digital, social and on-site fan experiences. The remaining host cities will be announced as the tour continues through early October.
“We’re thrilled to welcome Unrivaled to Little Caesars Arena for the league’s first-ever game in Detroit,” said Keith Dowdican, 313 Presents COO. “Hosting some of the world’s top women’s basketball players is a significant moment for our city and for the continued momentum of women’s sports. We’re proud to help bring this experience to Detroit, inspiring the next generation of athletes while creating an unforgettable night for fans across our basketball community.”
Unrivaled is teaming up with Bar IX, Detroit’s first women’s sports bar, for an official watch party partnership throughout the 2027 season. To tip off the partnership, Unrivaled will host fans tonight from 7-9 p.m. ET at Elephant & Co. Due to limited capacity, the event is first come first served, and fans must be 21+ to attend. Media interested in covering the activation should RSVP to pr@unrivaledleague.com.
“Ally has proudly called Detroit home for more than 100 years and we know how this city lives and breathes sports, so bringing Unrivaled here for the first time means something to us,” said Andrea Brimmer, Ally’s Chief Marketing and PR Officer. “The league has built something remarkable around the best basketball players in the world, and for Ally, this is a special opportunity to show up for both our hometown community and the athletes and fans moving this game forward. We can’t wait for Detroit to enjoy the full experience in and out of the arena.”
The complete season three schedule, including ticket information for games at Sephora Arena in Miami, will be announced in the fall. Fans can find the latest updates at unrivaled.basketball/tours and across Unrivaled’s social channels.
