Nationwide Arena, Columbus
The Women's Final Four is the national semifinals and championship of women's college basketball, in Columbus, Ohio, on April 2 and 4, 2027, and it has become one of the hottest tickets in sports.
Women's college basketball has exploded, and the Final Four is the crown of it: two national semifinals on Friday, then the championship on Sunday, in front of sold-out arenas and a television audience that now rivals the men's. Columbus is a compact, walkable host city that does big events well.
As with the men's tournament, the four teams are not set until the regional finals, so the smart move is to lock the trip early and let the matchups fall into place.
