FIBA 3×3 World Tour Abu Dhabi Masters is the last master of the current season where federations cumulate points for Paris 2024 qualification purposes. The actual cut-off date is 1 November 2023, which means four days right after the Masters in Al Ain.

The first game on Day one starts at 2pm on Saturday 28 October, with the last game slated for around 11.30pm (depending on running timing). In between the 15 games being played, guests will be treated to live entertainment, including dance performances, competition giveaways and more.

Day two, Sunday 29 October, sees the action reigniting at 5.15pm, with the Final being played at 9.15pm. Be sure to stick around for the Closing Ceremony, too, which will take place right after the Final.

Entry to this year’s event is complementary, which means seating is first come first served.
