Red Bull 3×3 The Game Wars 2026 will bring fast-paced basketball, music, culture, and entertainment to Colombo as St. Peter’s College hosts a two-day festival celebrating 70 years of basketball legacy.
Red Bull 3×3 The Game Wars 2026 is set to take place on February 21 and 22 at the St. Peter’s College Grounds and Basketball Complex in Colombo, promising an exciting celebration of basketball, youth culture, and community. Organised by the St. Peter’s College Basketball Foundation in partnership with Red Bull Sri Lanka, the event will blend the school’s rich basketball heritage with the global energy of the 3×3 basketball movement.
The two-day festival will feature fast-paced FIBA 3×3 basketball matches, live music performances, DJ sessions, dance acts, cheer squads, and interactive Red Bull activations. A food and beverage festival zone will also be available, creating a carnival-style atmosphere for players, fans, families, and alumni.
Matches will follow the FIBA 3×3 format, with games played to 21 points or within 10 minutes, using a 12-second shot clock to ensure intense and dynamic gameplay. The tournament will include multiple categories such as schools and academies (U19 and U17 boys and girls), university teams, and elite open categories for men and women over 20, with one national player allowed per team to maintain competitive balance.
With Red Bull’s global involvement in 3×3 basketball, including the Red Bull Half Court series, the event is expected to deliver world-class production, energy, and entertainment to Colombo. Participants and spectators are encouraged to register teams, mark their attendance, and be part of one of the most anticipated basketball events of the year.
