Cameron Indoor Stadium is located in the middle of Duke University’s campus and is known as one of the most iconic venues in all of college sports. Cameron is best known for being the home to the Duke men’s basketball team, but with a capacity just over 9,000, it can be hard to get tickets during the season. But there are plenty of other great opportunities to experience Cameron.  

Three additional teams play their home competitions in Cameron, including Duke Wrestling, Duke Volleyball, and Duke Women’s Basketball, who has established themselves as one of the top women’s basketball programs in the country with back-to-back Sweet 16 appearances in 2023-2024 and 2024-2025.  

Cameron Indoor has also served as the host for a number of championships, including the 2023 NCAA Fencing National Championship and the 2025 ACC Wrestling Championships. It will once again host the National Collegiate Men’s and Women’s Fencing Championship in 2027.
