A clock was unveiled at Phoenix Sky Harbor Airport on Tuesday counting down the days until the NCAA Women’s Basketball Final Four arrives in the Valley.
The semifinal games will take place April 3, 2026, in downtown Phoenix at PHX Arena, with the championship game played April 5.
Mayor Kate Gallego was on hand for the unveiling of the clock.
"This clock will not only serve as a reminder of the women’s Final Four for the millions of travelers that come through beautiful Sky Harbor airport, it's also a point of pride," Gallego said.
The men’s Final Four was played in Glendale in 2017 and 2024. This will mark the first time that Arizona has hosted the women’s Final Four.
