Current Men's Basketball Season Ticket Holders
3 Key Points For Current Season Ticket Holders in Men's Basketball
-
Current season ticket holders who do not want to change their current season ticket
location or add additional seats to their account, nor want to select season parking,
do not need to log in to Badger Select. To
order season tickets, the same process as previous years applies,
of returning the ticket order form and contribution form (when applicable) by July
24th is required.
-
After completing the order and contribution (if applicable) process for season tickets
that you had the previous season, you will automatically be assigned a personalized
selection date and time during the Badger Select process, based on Badger Select
rank: 2024 Annual Giving Level and Badger Select priority points
as of December 31st, 2017 plus 2018–2024 priority
points accrued from non-deductible donations, and years of purchase for non-donor
season ticket holders; which will run August 16 – August 23. You then
can choose to log in during that time, or any time after until the end of the
process to view available seats at the Kohl Center.
Badger Select Rank is first based on 2024 Annual Giving
level, and then by Badger Select priority point total within each giving level
as of December 31st, 2017 plus 2018–2024
priority points accrued from non-deductible donations.
-
During the Badger Select process, as a current season ticket holder, you have the ability to purchase additional seats or swap your current seats for other available seats. You also have the ability to purchase parking based on your qualifying gift amount.
Importance of Badger Select Rank
Your Badger Select rank will determine your priority in the Badger Select process. The higher your Badger Select rank, the earlier your selection date and time will be in Badger Select which may increase the pool of quality seats to choose from.
Badger Select Rank is based on 2024 Annual Giving Level and Badger Select priority points. Badger Select priority points include: points as of December 31st, 2017 plus 2018–2024 priority points accrued from non–deductible donations. Non–deductible donations include those associated with priority seating and Badger Select seating contributions.
For Badger Select Rank, 100% deductible donations made in 2018–2024 will NOT be allocated towards Badger Select priority points. 100% deductible gifts include those to sport specific funds, endowed scholarships, or capital projects. (Please note Badger Select rank is different from Donor Rank.)

Historical Season Ticket Data
Below, we discuss the two factors which impact seat selection: ticket availability and donor rank. We also have included the season ticket seating results from the 2022-23 season, for your review. We recommend using last season's results only as a guide, as past results cannot predict future results.
Ticket Availability
Ticket availability is determined after the current season ticket-holder ticket sales process has completed (July 24th). The quantity and location of unsold tickets determines the inventory available for seat improvement as well as new/additional season ticket requests. Ticket availability for men's basketball does fluctuate from season to season. However, as evidenced by the chart below, season ticket sales rates for men's basketball are consistently strong.
Season Ticket Retention Percentages
Please keep in mind that the retention rates listed above include all Kohl Center seating areas. Retention rates of season tickets in 100 and 200 level sections typically approach 99%
Season Ticket Inventory
The chart above demonstrates just how few season tickets, especially in the 100 and 200 level sections, become available for seat selection

2023 - 2024 Season Ticket Seating Results
The table below shows the 2023 annual giving level and priority point thresholds needed for seat improvement or new season tickets. We recommend using last season's results only as a guide, as past results cannot predict future results, especially given the new seat selection process.
