where does georgetown basketball play

Georgetown men’s basketball plays its home games at Capital One Arena in Washington, D.C., located in the Chinatown/Gallery Place area.

Main venue

• The Georgetown Hoyas men’s team is a primary tenant at Capital One Arena, sharing it with the Washington Wizards (NBA) and Washington Capitals (NHL).

• The arena is an indoor, multipurpose venue in downtown Washington, D.C., a few Metro stops from Georgetown’s campus.

On-campus history and exceptions

• Historically, Georgetown men’s basketball played on campus at McDonough Arena before moving to larger off-campus arenas in the early 1980s.

• McDonough Arena is now mainly associated with other Georgetown programs (including women’s basketball) and occasional special events rather than being the regular home for the men’s team.

Recent and future context

• Coverage of Georgetown hoops and game atmospheres routinely centers on Capital One Arena, underlining it as the program’s game-day home.

• Recent arena discussions suggest that even with possible changes for other pro teams, Georgetown is expected to remain at Capital One Arena as a headline tenant after 2027.
