London Lions v Bristol Flyers

London Lions welcome Bristol Flyers to Copper Box Arena on Saturday 24 October 2026 for a SLB Championship clash that has developed into a genuine and watchable rivalry in British basketball. Bristol Flyers have grown considerably in stature over recent seasons — combining a strong domestic identity with a committed local fanbase and a roster capable of pushing the Lions hard across a full forty minutes — and their visits to Copper Box Arena tend to produce close-fought, physical contests that showcase the best of what the SLB Championship has to offer. The Lions will be balancing a busy October calendar across the SLB and EuroCup around this fixture, but home games at the Copper Box have historically brought the best out of the squad in front of their own crowd and a sell-out or near-full arena. Saturday evening tip-offs at Copper Box Arena create one of the most complete matchday experiences available in London sport at this price point — the venue’s excellent catering facilities, easy transport links and comfortable seated tiers make it ideal for groups, families and individual supporters looking for a high-quality evening out in east London. Copper Box Arena sits adjacent to Stratford station, one of the best-connected transport hubs in the country, served by the Elizabeth line, Jubilee line, Central line, DLR and Overground. Official tickets are available via Ticketmaster; StubHub and Viagogo also list availability.
