AUBURN, Ala. – Auburn baseball earned a regional host bid for the fourth time in the last five seasons, the NCAA announced Sunday night.

Prior to 2022, Auburn had hosted four regionals in its program’s history but has doubled that total to eight in the last five years. The previous seasons are 1978, 1999, 2003, 2010, 2022, 2023 and 2025.

The Tigers are one of two programs to earn a regional host bid in four of the last five seasons, joined by North Carolina on the very short list.

“We’re excited about the opportunity to have postseason baseball at Plainsman Park for the fourth time in the last five seasons,” head coach Butch Thompson said. “Not many programs are able to say they’ve hosted as often as us in the last half decade, and the credit goes to our amazing players, coaches, supporters and administration.”

The Auburn Regional will be held Friday through Monday (if necessary) at Plainsman Park. The complete NCAA baseball tournament bracket, including national seeds and who the Tigers will welcome to Plainsman Park, will be announced Monday at 11 a.m. CT on ESPN2.

A limited number of all-session tickets for Auburn students are available now to purchase via AUBTIX.com, and all-session tickets for the general public will go on sale Monday following the NCAA selection show at 1:30 p.m. CT.

All-session tickets are the only way to currently secure admission to the Auburn Regional at Plainsman Park. Should any additional ticket inventory remain, single-session tickets could be made available at a later date.

Tigers Unlimited members will receive an email tonight with additional priority ticketing information.
