 2026 EuroLeague SuperCup | |
The creation of the tournament was officially approved during the EuroLeague Basketball Shareholders General Assembly in July 2026[1]. The inaugural edition of the competition is scheduled to take place from September 18 to September 19, 2026, exactly one week before the start of the EuroLeague regular season[2].
History
As part of EuroLeague Basketball's strategic expansion and financial growth into new markets outside of Europe, the league's executive board proposed the creation of a pre-season tournament. Following final approval by the club-shareholders, the SuperCup became the third active official tournament managed by the EuroLeague Basketball company, alongside the EuroLeague and the EuroCup[3].
Format
The EuroLeague SuperCup utilizes a Final Four knockout format. The tournament features four invited top-tier clubs competing in two single-elimination semifinal matches, a third-place playoff, and the championship final to crown the winner.
