The UNC men’s basketball team will host its annual Blue-White scrimmage in the Dean Smith Center on Saturday, October 4. The game will begin approximately one hour after the conclusion of the UNC vs. Clemson football game, which kicks off at 12 p.m. in Kenan Stadium.

Admission to the game is free to the public, and doors will open 15 minutes after the football game ends. Fans will have the option to purchase exclusive access to a one-item autograph session with the team following the game for $150. Those who purchase the session will receive access to a reserved seat for the scrimmage. Click here for more information on how to purchase one of the 500 available spots.

Football parking rules will be in effect for the Blue-White game. Fans who do not have a football parking permit are encouraged to use the Tar Heel Express park-and-ride bus service.

UNC will not play another public game at the Smith Center until an exhibition against Winston-Salem State on Wednesday, October 29. A tip-off time has yet to be announced. Tickets to the game will go on sale in early October, according to UNC.
