Join fellow Panthers as we hit the road to Champaign for On the Road with EIU: Panthers vs. Illini! Cheer on the Panthers as they take on the University of Illinois and reconnect with alumni and friends for a spirited day of basketball, fellowship, and Panther pride.
Before the game, gather with the EIU community at our pregame social, beginning at 6:00pm at Brass Rail, located at 15 E University Ave, Champaign, IL 61820 in Champaign. Registration includes drinks and food, and guests are welcome to purchase additional drinks from the bar throughout the event.
Whether you’re traveling from Charleston, Champaign-Urbana, or beyond, this is the perfect opportunity to celebrate Eastern with fellow alumni, family, and friends before cheering on the Panthers at the 8:00pm tip-off.
Game tickets are sold separately from the EIU pregame registration. Fans may purchase game tickets directly through Illinois Athletics.
Wear your blue, bring your Panther spirit, and join us as we show the Illini what EIU is all about. Go Panthers!
Advanced registration is required. Eastern Illinois University is committed to providing accessible experiences for all guests. If you require accommodations to fully participate in this event, please contact University Advancement at alumeiu@eiu.edu.
