Iowa basketball doubleheader | Where to find tickets, how to watch at home

Call it the Caitlin Clark effect: Tickets to the Iowa basketball doubleheader are already sold out. Luckily, there are still some places to find tickets.

DES MOINES, Iowa — The Hawkeyes are coming to Iowa's capital city.

Both the Iowa men's and women's basketball teams will descend on Des Moines this Saturday for the Hy-Vee Hawkeye Showcase.

Tickets for the Iowa basketball doubleheader are already sold-out (call it the Caitlin Clark effect), but there are still ways to watch the game, both in-person and at home. 

Iowa basketball doubleheader tickets

Tickets went on sale for the Des Moines doubleheader in May ... and promptly sold out. 

Luckily, you can still find tickets on resale websites such as Ticketmaster, SeatGeek and StubHub.

Tickets on Ticketmaster start around $25 as of Friday morning, while SeatGeek tickets will run you as low as $18. Tickets on StubHub start at $24. 

All tickets will get you into both the men's and the women's games. 

Wells Fargo Arena parking

Spectator parking is available at the lot north of the Iowa Events Center, with entrances off of 3rd Street and 5th Avenue. To park in that lot, it'll cost $12 for cars, $24 for large trucks and $48 for RVs and buses.
