With 2025 right around the corner, college gymnastics fans and athletes are poised for a brand-new season. LSU made college gymnastics history last year by winning the 2025 NCAA Women’s Gymnastics Championship. It was a dream come true for LSU’s star Olivia Dunne and her fellow Tigers. However, the time to set the standard as defending champions begins in January.

In fact, the pre-season gymnastics exhibitions are already underway in several institutions, including LSU. The regular season kicks off on January 3, with 84 NCAA member colleges competing to earn a spot in the NCAA Championships. However, only 36 of those 84 teams ultimately make it to the championships, with only 16 earning seeds. With that out of the way, here’s the essential info on the 2025 edition of the gymnastics national championships.

What to know about the venues for the 2025 Women’s Gymnastics Championship

The NCAA has already released the venues for the next four championships. However, we’ll be focusing on those announced for 2025. As always, the 2025 national championships will happen in stages, with regional finals playing out simultaneously across multiple state venues across the different conferences. The four regional venues for 2025 are:

• Jon M. Huntsman Center in Salt Lake City, Utah. Home ground for the University of Utah.
• Alaska Airlines Arena in Seattle. Home ground for the University of Washington.
• Coleman Coliseum in Tuscaloosa, Alabama. Home ground for the University of Alabama.
• Rec Hall in University Park, Pennsylvania. Home ground for the Pennsylvania State University.

A total of eight teams will progress from these four regional finals (aka the 2025 Women’s Gymnastics Championship quarterfinals). The eight teams will once again clash in groups of four at the championship semifinals, which will take place at Dickies Arena in Fort Worth, Texas. The trend and tested 14,000-capacity neutral venue will host the 2025 Championship. Yet, what about the tickets?

What are the ticket prices for the 2025 NCAA Women’s Gymnastics Championship Event?

Those looking to catch the semifinals and finals action at the venue will have to travel to Texas. The NCAA has already announced that Dickies Arena will continue to host the championship round until at least 2027. Dickies Arena has also started selling tickets to the three events (Semifinals 1 & 2 and Final) as an all-session ticket package.

Ticket prices range from $90 to $125 depending on how far you are from the action. While the rows closer to the action cost more, the overall ticket prices seem to have gone up a notch compared to last season. The 2024 all-session tickets started at $75, but even the least expensive tickets for the NCAA Women’s Gymnastics Championship cost $15 more. And finally, we come to the dates.

What are the dates for the 2025 NCAA Championship?

The regional finals will kick off on April 2 and will conclude on April 6, 2025. All four regional contests conclude within this time frame, with the competitors getting just over a week to rest up for the final three rounds of competition. The first semifinal will be held on April 17, and the 2025 NCAA Women’s Gymnastics Championship winner will be crowned on April 19.

So as the anticipation builds for the NCAA Championships, there’s a lot to look forward to. Besides college gymnastics stars such as Olivia Dunne, 2025 will see Paris Olympic gold medalists such as Hezly Rivera and Jordan Chiles compete on the national stage. While Rivera will represent LSU alongside Livvy Dunne, Chiles will take to the floor in UCLA’s colors. However, to make the championships, they first have to find success during the regular season.
