2027 Morehouse x Atlanta Hawks MLK Day Takeover
January 18, 2027 @ 2:00 pm - 6:00 pm
Morehouse Takes Over State Farm Arena on MLK Day!
Atlanta-area Morehouse Brothers
Let’s come together to honor the legacy of one of our own, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., with an afternoon of service, fellowship, basketball, and Morehouse pride!
Join the Morehouse College Atlanta Alumni Chapter as the Atlanta Hawks take on the Philadelphia 76ers in a special MLK Day celebration.
Monday, January 18, 2027
State Farm Arena | Atlanta, GA
Atlanta Hawks vs. Philadelphia 76ers
Tipoff: 2:30 p.m.
Morehouse Hymn on the Court: 1:30 p.m.
Tickets: Starting at $160 for members | $170 for non-members
A Special Morehouse Experience
Before tipoff, our Brothers will have the opportunity to take the court and proudly sing the Morehouse Hymn, continuing a meaningful tradition of representing Dear Old Morehouse at State Farm Arena.
Our vision extends beyond the basketball game. We’re working to create a full day of brotherhood and service, beginning with a morning community service opportunity, followed by fellowship over lunch and an afternoon cheering on the Hawks.
We’ve extended an invitation to President F. DuBois Bowman and are also exploring the possibility of having the Morehouse College Glee Club perform the national anthem. Additional details will be shared as plans are finalized.
Ticket Information & Distribution
We have secured a block of 50 tickets, held through December 3, 2026. Tickets are available on a first-come, first-served basis, so we encourage Brothers to purchase early.
A few important details:
- Group Seating: All tickets purchased through the chapter will be seated together. The specific seating section will be confirmed closer to the event.
- Ticket Distribution: The Atlanta Chapter will receive the tickets and distribute them directly to individual purchasers before game day.
- Pre-Game Gathering: We are planning a pre-game meetup for fellowship and to distribute any remaining tickets that have not been delivered in advance.
Help Us Build a New Morehouse Tradition!
Our goal is to strengthen the Morehouse × Atlanta Hawks partnership and establish this MLK Day celebration as an annual signature event for our alumni community.
Let’s show up, serve our community, celebrate our brotherhood, and lift our voices for Dear Old Morehouse!
