Tickets are priced at $80.00 each, and a table of eight (8) can be reserved for $600.00. They can be reserved and paid for by completing the following ticket request form...
Payment accepted includes eTransfer to mbhof@basketballmanitoba.ca, by credit card or mailed cheque. The MBHOF prefers the eTransfer option as 100% of funds will reach the Hall vs a credit card which will see 3-5% go to processing fees. A cheque payable to the "MBHOF" is also an option to be mailed to Basketball Manitoba, 145 Pacific Avenue, Winnipeg, Manitoba, R3C 2Z6. Payment options will be provided once you complete the above reservation form.
No tickets will be sold at the door on October 1. All seating for the dinner is assigned, meaning you can sit with the people of your choice. Doors will open at 5:30 pm with a cash bar, dinner is at 7:00 pm, and induction ceremonies will begin at about 8:00 pm. The event will also be video recorded to allow those unable to attend the in-person dinner to view the induction portion of the evening.
Our Hall of Fame dinners have become a special gathering place for our extended basketball community. We hope many will choose to attend in October to celebrate the game we all love and to honour our newest inductees.
