BASKETBALL – THE Fiba 3x3 World Tour Final, hosted last year by Bahrain, will be held this year in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
This was announced yesterday by the International Basketball Federation (Fiba).
The competition is scheduled to take place on December 12 and 13, with the best 3x3 basketball players from around the world showcasing their skills.
Fiba 3x3 managing director Alex Sanchez commented: “We are thrilled that we can look forward to signing off another successful Fiba 3x3 World Tour in real style, in such an iconic and box-office location like Rio de Janeiro.”
Tipping off in Utsunomiya, Japan, on April 25 and 26, this year’s Fiba 3x3 World Tour will travel around the World with its exciting fusion of elite competition, urban culture, and festival-style atmosphere.
The Fiba 3x3 World Tour is the leading worldwide street basketball series under Fiba, basketball’s international governing body.
Bahrain hosted an event on the Fiba 3x3 World Tour the past three years, including the Manama Masters in 2023 and 2024, and then last year’s finale. It is still unclear if the kingdom will stage an event in 2026, as Fiba announced that more stops on the calendar are still to be announced.
