WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. – The Purdue basketball teams will hold their annual Fan Day on Saturday, Oct. 21, beginning at 10 a.m. ET, in Mackey Arena.
Both women's and men's basketball teams will be featured on Fan Day. The women's team will start the activities with an open practice and scrimmage starting at 10 a.m. ET. At 11:45 a.m., there will be an autograph session that will last for approximately one hour for both teams before the men's team will hold a practice and scrimmage beginning at 1 p.m. ET. Doors will open at 9 a.m. ET.
Autograph cards will be provided by Purdue Athletics for use during the autograph session and will be the only item that student-athletes will autograph. Outside items will not be eligible to be signed.
During the event, kids will have the opportunity to draw their own Purdue Basketball jersey to submit for the chance to win tickets to a Purdue Basketball game.
In addition, the ticket office and John Purdue Club representatives will be available from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m., to purchase tickets. The team store and select concession stands will also be open on Fan Day and will operate on a cashless basis. Parking will be available in all lots surrounding Mackey Arena.
This will be the lone opportunity to see the men's team in Mackey Arena before its exhibition game Nov. 1, against Grace College at Mackey Arena. The women's team will open its season on Oct. 29, with an exhibition game against Quincy.
Single-game tickets and multi-game plans will go on sale to John Purdue Club members beginning on Oct. 17, and to the general public on Oct. 20.
The 2023-24 Purdue men's and women's basketball seasons are presented by Purdue Global, Purdue University's online educational solution for working adults.

Purdue returns six of its top seven scorers from last year's team that went 29-6 and won the Big Ten regular-season and tournament titles.
