The Pro Volleyball Federation will host its 2025 championship weekend in Las Vegas with three matches taking place at Lee’s Family Forum in Henderson, Nevada, home of the Vegas Thrill.
“As the proud home of the Vegas Thrill and one of the inaugural cities in Pro Volleyball Federation, we’re excited to welcome back elite athletes and passionate volleyball fans from across the country for an unforgettable championship weekend in a city built for world-class events,” said Steve Hill, chief executive officer and president of the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority.
Semifinal matches will be on May 9 and the championship “Match for a Million” will take place May 11. The “Match for A Million” offers the most lucrative prize in American volleyball, with the winning team earning a $1 million dollar bonus to be distributed among its players. All three matches will be broadcast nationally on CBS Sports Network.
“Las Vegas is a destination city and the destination each PVF team fights to reach at the end of our extremely competitive season,” said Jen Spicher, Pro Volleyball Federation chief executive officer. “We’ve built the most competitive league in the sport, and this championship is the culmination of an incredible season. We are thrilled to give our fans and followers a great reason to travel there to watch our top teams in person as they compete for a million dollars. Whether you’re a lifelong fan or new to PVF, Vegas is the place to be.”
Lee’s Family Forum — a 5,567-seat arena — opened in 2022, 15 minutes southeast of the Las Vegas Strip. In addition to professional volleyball, it also hosts minor league hockey, concerts and the annual Big West Conference men’s and women’s basketball tournaments.
“Lee’s Family Forum has loved being Henderson’s home for professional volleyball, and we are thrilled to host the Pro Volleyball Federation’s second championship,” said Paul Shlisky, general manager of Lee’s Family Forum. “Our arena is no stranger to high-intensity, action-packed events and we can’t wait to welcome the league’s top teams and passionate fans for an unforgettable championship atmosphere.”
