About Us

The Jersey Mike’s Jamaica Classic is located just 90 minutes south of Miami. Conveniently located in one of the most iconic destinations in the Caribbean – beautiful Montego Bay, Jamaica. The new SMG managed Montego Bay Convention Centre is the host of all tournament games November 16-18, 2018.

With direct flights into Sangster International Airport (MBJ) from nearly every major U.S. city and an average November temperature of 80 degrees F, Montego Bay is the perfect destination for an early college basketball getaway.

CBS Sports will once again televise all games on Friday and Sunday Nationally across the United States, as well as streaming across the web.

All of the teams and those purchasing the official tournament events package will stay at the top rated all-inclusive 5 star Hyatt Ziva resort just minutes from the airport and even closer to the Montego Bay Convention Centre. Rooms at the adults only Hyatt Zilara available upon request.

Join us in MoBay this November!
