The VTB United Youth League 2025/26 Final Four will be held in Saint Petersburg
The decisive stage of the VTB United Youth League 2025/26 will take place in Saint Petersburg. The Final Four games will be held on April 30 and May 1 at the Zenit Basketball Academy court (Severnaya Road, 12).
Over the course of two days, the four strongest teams will compete for medals and the championship trophy. The lineup of participants will be determined based on the results of the first round of the playoffs, scheduled for April 21, 24, and if necessary, 25. In the Youth League quarterfinals, the Zenit U21 players will fight for the right to play in the decisive stage on their home court. The quarterfinal series will be played as a best-of-three: the Blue-White-Sky Blues will start the series away, then play one match (or if necessary, two matches) at home.
On April 30, the first day of the Final Four, the semifinal matches will take place. The next day, May 1, will feature the third-place game and the tournament final.
Information about media accreditation for the VTB United Youth League Final Four, as well as details regarding fan attendance, will be announced separately.
Saint Petersburg already has experience hosting the final stages of the youth championship. Previously, the city hosted the Final Eight of the 2020/21 season at the Zenit Basketball Academy, as well as the Final Eight of the 2018/19 season at the CSC Arena court (formerly SIBUR Arena).
