A new era for the Harlem Globetrotters
The Harlem Globetrotters, a beloved entertainment brand, are experiencing unprecedented growth.
They have returned to television for the first time in 40 years, signed deals with global partners like Spalding and IMG, received multiple Emmy nominations, and launched the first-ever sports residency.
This expansion to Asia marks a significant step in their journey.
“We are excited about our partnership with LK Entertainment, in that it allows for our strategic expansion and commitment to the many audiences that make up the Asia continent,” said Keith Dawkins, President of Harlem Globetrotters and Herschend Entertainment Studios.
“We believe that this is not only a tremendous opportunity for our live tour business but for the growth of other facets of the Globetrotters’ businesses, including content, sponsorship, and consumer products.”
Thrilling performances across Asia
The tour will kick off on Tuesday, November 12, and conclude on Sunday, November 24.
The Harlem Globetrotters will perform eight shows across five cities, bringing their unique blend of basketball wizardry and entertainment to Asian audiences.
From July 25 to 28, key players ‘Wham’ Middleton, holder of nine Guinness World Records, and ‘Moose’ Weeke will make special appearances, engaging with local communities through a series of events.
