The Barclays Invitational brings hoops, culture, and creativity together under one roof.
Join us at the Brooklyn Nets Practice Court and Qatar Airways Hospitality Lounge inside Barclays Center — just three blocks from the 2025 Aptos Experience — for a night of competition, community, and culture.
The event features a 3v3 basketball tournament with a $1,000 cash prize, plus fan-favorite games like 3-Point Shootout, Knockout, and Pop-A-Shot.
Off the court, enjoy live t-shirt airbrushing, custom player card activations where you can turn yourself into a rookie card, and interactive experiences from local NYC businesses showcasing the best of streetwear, art, and tech.
