BIRMINGHAM, AL – SEC fans in Atlanta will get a double-dose of Southeastern Conference basketball in March and a special ticket offer is making it easier for them to enjoy all the excitement of the SEC version of March Madness.

The SEC Men’s and Women’s Basketball Tournaments will play out in 26 games over a fortnight of hoops action as the women’s tournament is played from March 5-9 at The Arena at Gwinnett Center in Duluth before men’s teams battle from March 12-16 at the Georgia Dome in Atlanta.

A special combo ticket offer for admission to all 26 games is available for $350 until Feb. 28.  That is $50 off the regular price of $100 for a women’s tournament book and $300 for a men’s tournament book.  Tickets purchased through the combo offer will be located in the second level of both arenas.  Combo tickets can be purchased by calling (800) 732-4849 or by visiting SECsports.com (click on “Tickets”).

This is the fourth time The Arena at Gwinnett Center has hosted the SEC Women’s Basketball Tournament, with previous trips in 2007, 2010 and 2013.
