Calling all Billikens fans! Join Saint Louis University for our biggest celebration of men's basketball all year. Alumni Fan Fest brings SLU graduates, donors and families together annually at Chaifetz Pavilion for a pregame celebration before cheering on the Billikens at a thrilling game in the arena. 

2026 Event Details

Our 2026 pregame party will feature everything you need to get ready to cheer on the men's basketball team before they tip off against Duquesne: family-friendly games, Billiken cheer and refreshments — including heavy appetizers, salad, popcorn, cookies and a complimentary beverage.
