Discover the New York Knicks —
What could be better than going to see a New York Knicks game in Maddison Square Garden? Thanks to the Knicks, you'll be immersed in a unique atmosphere that you'll remember for a long time! Founded in 1946, the Knicks reached their peak in the early 1970s when they gleaned two NBA championship titles (1970, 1973).
Quite unusually, the franchise is the only one in the National Basketball Association, along with the Boston Celtics, never to have moved to another city. Members of the Eastern Conference and residents of Madison Square Garden, the New York Knicks have been struggling for several decades to recapture their former success. The franchise fell on hard times in the 1980s before bouncing back in the late 1990s, when they reached the NBA Finals in the 1998-1999 season.
After a disappointing 2021-22 season with an 11th-place finish in the East, the franchise bounced back in 2022-23 with a fifth-place finish and playoff qualification. With the Frenchman Evan Fournier, European runner-up with Les Bleus, as well as their stars RJ Barrett, Julius Randle and Jalen Brunso, the Knicks will want more than ever to build on their collective strength. With a competitive team, everything is in place to qualify for the playoffs again and the Knicks, coached by Tom Thibodeau, intend to show it on the floor in a mythical venue!
The Venue —
Do you dream of attending an NBA game in a legendary venue? Discover the famous Madison Square Garden! This 19,763-seat stadium (for basketball games) is a real institution. It is located in the borough of Manhattan in New York. The Big Apple's best-known sports stadium, "The Garden" was built in 1879 for track cycling before evolving over the years, until its most recent renovation in 2008.
Madison Square Garden is as famous for its over-the-top atmosphere as it is for its unique architecture and is a must-see for fans of basketball, ice hockey, concerts and theatre. Rich with a unique history, a temple to New York sport and a venue that has hosted major events for years, this stadium will immerse you in an inimitable atmosphere from the very first moment...
The Match —
You'll attend the match between the New York Knicks and the Golden State Warriors which takes place on 29/02/24 at Madison Square Garden in New York. A clash between East and West that promises to be one of the most exciting against the franchise of the infernal duo of shooters Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson, recently joined by a new NBA star, Chris Paul. A privileged spot awaits you, in grandstand section 208!
To get the full NBA experience, you can (subject to availability) play and shoot on the court before the game.
Discover the Philadelphia Sixers —
Another historic franchise in this Eastern Conference, the Philadelphia Sixers will charm you with their explosive and spectacular play! Like their New York counterpart, the Sixers were founded in 1946 and reached their peak in the 1980s, lifting 4 conference championship titles (1977, 1980, 1982 and 1983) and 1 NBA title (1983).
Witness to the emergence of legendary players such as Wilt Chamberlain (record holder for most points in a game - 100 points), Billy Cunningham, Julius Erving or Allen Iverson in his heyday, the franchise has been struggling for several seasons to regain the grail: an NBA title, and that's despite a conference championship deed won in 2001.
Third in the Eastern Conference and conference semi-finalists in the playoffs during the 2022-23 season, the franchise has finally lived up to expectations. In 2023-24, the 76ers will have their sights set on another conference title, followed by an NBA title... Why not believe it? Led by a talented major 5 made up of all-star players such as James Harden and Joël Embiid, the young nephew Tyrese Maxey and experienced players such Tobias Harris and P.J Tucker, the Sixers are looking to hit it big this 2023-2024 season.
The Venue and Match —
A true sports city, Philadelphia is home to the famous Wells Fargo Center! A 20,318-seat Omnisports arena (for basketball games) was inaugurated in 1996 and is the nerve center of the city's professional sports teams. As well as being the home of the Sixers, it is also the home of the Philadelphia Flyers in the NHL and the Philadelphia Wings in the NLL.
As Philadelphians are true sports fans and inveterate fans of their team, the arena is thus known as "The Loud House", which says a lot about the supercharged atmosphere it houses. When you visit this arena, you'll witness an unforgettable spectacle and unerring fervor.
In this electric atmosphere, you will attend the match between the Philadephia Sixers and the New York Knicks which will take place on 22/04/24 at the Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia. A privileged position awaits you, in the low stand, so that you can make the most of the match!
To get the full NBA experience, you can enjoy exclusive access to the NBA Fan Experience in Philadelphia - this amazing opportunity allows you to play on the court for one hour prior to the game!
Also, enjoy included return transfers by private shuttle to/from New York/Philadelphia!
