WNBA Coming to Edmonton this May, Tickets on Sale Mar 20th

The WNBA is set to bring its exhilarating brand of basketball to Edmonton, with the Los Angeles Sparks and the Seattle Storm facing off in a preseason showdown on May 5, 2024, at Rogers Place.

The game promises to showcase top talent, including the Seattle Storm’s 2023 WNBA scoring leader and All-Star Game MVP Jewell Loyd, alongside teammates Ezi Magbegor and newly acquired stars Nneka Ogwumike and Skylar Diggins-Smith.

Representing the Los Angeles Sparks will be All-Star Layshia Clarendon, 2022 WNBA Champion Dearica Hamby, and Canadian standout Kia Nurse. The Sparks, holding the second and fourth overall first-round picks in the 2024 WNBA Draft, are one of the league’s original eight franchises.

The matchup marks the second time a WNBA preseason game has been played in Canada and the fourth instance outside the U.S. The inaugural WNBA Canada Game in Toronto set new records for broadcast viewership, attendance, and merchandise sales within the country.

With tickets going on sale on March 20, fans are encouraged to register for presale access to see the game, supported by partners like Air Canada, Canadian Tire, and Explore Edmonton.
