With over 6,000 teams, 450 courts, and tens of thousands of fans pouring into downtown Spokane, this is the kind of event you just have to experience at least once. Whether you’re playing, cheering, or just soaking it all in, Hoopfest is where Spokane shows up and shows out.

It’s part street party, part athletic showdown—and it’s completely unique to this city.
