NEW YORK –The WNBA and TIDAL, the global music and entertainment service, will livestream the first basketball event on the platform with the 2017 regular-season finale between the New York Liberty and the Dallas Wings on Sunday, Sept. 3 at 2 p.m. ET.
The groundbreaking video livestream will be available free to all fans on TIDAL.com/WNBA and the TIDAL App.
The Dallas Wings have dedicated the game to benefit Hurricane Harvey relief efforts by donating $1 for each ticket sold and have partnered with Dallas Women’s Foundation to support agencies across North Texas who are providing relief for impacted families. In addition, viewers watching the Texas-based game will be able to donate to Hurricane Harvey Disaster Relief funds with the Red Cross and Dallas Women’s Foundation throughout the livestream.
“The WNBA is thrilled to join TIDAL for this special event which will benefit those impacted by Hurricane Harvey,” said WNBA President Lisa Borders. “There are two international languages, music and sports. WNBA fans are passionate about both and TIDAL brings these two passions together on one dynamic platform.”
