Cameron Indoor Stadium Events

Cameron Indoor Stadium, home to the Duke Blue Devils men’s and women’s basketball teams as well as the women’s volleyball team, is located in Durham, North Carolina, on the campus of Duke University (often erroneously thought to be part of the Ivy League, which it is not, though Duke is known for its high level academics as well as athletics). The Duke Blue Devils men’s basketball team is considered one of the top college basketball teams in the United States, listed fourth nationally in terms of all-time wins (2273) and winning percentage (.712). The Blue Devils’ record in the NCAA postseason March Madness tournament is even better, where the team has the best win percentage in the country at .755 along with 17 Final Four appearances. It took the Devils quite some time to win their first championship, however, but it finally came in 1991 under the leadership of legendary coach Mike Krzyzewkski, who remained at the helm of Duke’s basketball team for an incredible 42 years (1980-2022), taking the Blue Devils to 9 championship finals during his tenure and winning 5. Krzyzewkski retired after 2022 at the age of 75, lauded as not only one of the greatest college coaches but one of the greatest basketball coaches of all time (he turned down numerous lucrative NBA job offers in order to stay at Duke). Many Blue Devils alum have also gone on to play in the NBA, including Grant Hill and Jeff Mullins as well as current stars Kyrie Irving, Zion Williamson, and Jayson Tatum. As well as Blue Devils home games, Cameron Indoor Stadium has also hosted local high school championships and general events, but concerts are a rarity (since the 1980s) due to the facility’s size and age (built in 1940, it is one of the only college arenas to still feature backboards that hang down from the ceiling!). Despite the relatively diminutive size of Cameron Indoor Stadium by modern NCAA standards, the place is still famed for its wild atmosphere generated by legions of blue-clad fans, the Cameron Crazies, who have been measured cheering at volumes comparable to a buzz saw when fired up. Student fans are so keen on getting tickets to big games (against fellow North Carolinians the Tar Heels for instance) that they camp outside the arena in tents for months (!), a tradition now known under the rather unpronounceable moniker of Krzyzewkskiville. Hungry visitors at the Cameron Indoor Stadium will find no shortage of tasty stadium snacks at the concessions, including the Fully Loaded Double Stack Cheeseburger, Hog Heaven BBQ Sandwich, and delicious soft pretzels, along with cold beer and wine (as of 2021!). Those in the market for Blue Devils merchandise should head to shops and kiosks at Cameron Indoor Stadium or around campus.

The city is immensely proud of the Blue Devils’ success and fame on the national stage and fans often drive long distances to home games as well as away games and NCAA postseason March Madness tournament games.
