Bulls Fest 2025 Returns with Hoops, Legends, and Family Fun

Chicago's basketball scene will heat up for a Summer event planned later this month (August) at the United Center.

A Full-Court Celebration of Hoops Culture

The two-day Bulls Fest 2025 will transform the area around the UC into a basketball playground, with more than 50 courts planned in Parking Lot C for a 3v3 tournament.

Set for August 23 and 24, the tournament will feature a men's, women's, and youth bracket, with players as young as 8 years old welcome to participate.

Contests, Clinics, and Iconic Bulls Moments

The tournament is just one part of Bulls Fest, with fans able to test their skills in a Three-Point Challenge and Slam Dunk Contest, judged by Bulls players and talent.
