Barclays Center releases February 2024 calendar: 17 ticketed events over 13 days. Plus USA Basketball Women's Team training camp Fri.-Sun.; late event Sat.

The Barclays Center two days ago released its February 2024 calendar of events: it includes 17 ticketed events over 13 days: six Brooklyn Nets games, two concerts, one Globetrotters game, and eight Ringling Brothers circus shows over four days. 

It also includes three days of private events starting tomorrow.

That compares with 21 events over 15 days in February 2023, including three concerts and two Harlem Globetrotters games in the same day.

The training camp

Note three unspecified private events this weekend, one Friday, from 9 am to 3 pm, one Saturday on the plaza from 7 pm until midnight, and one Sunday from 11 am to 3 pm.

They are all likely part of the training camp Feb. 2-4 announced by the USA Basketball Women’s National Team, which aims to winnow 18 players, among them three New York Liberty stars, to 12 athletes to represent the United States at the 2024 FIBA Women’s Olympic Qualifying Tournament Feb. 8-11 in Antwerp, Belgium.

The asterisk on the Saturday event indicates that it's on the plaza and will include amplified sounds or go past midnight. So it's not clear if that counts the midnight ending or implies amplified sounds.

Could there be a press or TV event? Also, it seems unlikely that the training camp would be limited to the plaza.

February 2023

The Barclays Center February 2023 calendar of ticketed events included 21 events over 15 days: seven Brooklyn Nets games, three concerts, two Harlem Globetrotters games (in the same day), one wrestling event, and eight Jurassic World Live Tour family shows over three days.

That was an improvement over the sparse February 2022 calendar, with seven events over seven days, but still trailing February 2020, with 25 events over 19 days, including four New York Islanders games, before the pandemic hit and the Islanders left.
