Friars: Late Night Madness Returns To The Dunk, Khalid To Perform

PROVIDENCE, RI — To the victor goes the spoils, as the saying goes, and, after a year of success greater than most in recent memory, the Providence College Friars seem to have leveled up.

The latest illustration of that comes in the form of a Grammy award nominee being booked as the performing artist at this year's Late Night Madness, which returns to the Dunkin' Donuts Center for the first time since 2019.

Providence College announced that Khalid, one of the most streamed artists in the world and a legitimate pop star, will perform at the event on Oct. 1.

Late Night Madness marks the beginning of the 2022-23 men's and women's basketball season. It is available to season ticket holders and other members of what the athletic department calls the "Friar Family".

Tickets to the event can be purchased by registering for homecoming weekend here.

The full schedule for the Friars men's basketball season has yet to be announced, but the Friars do have a couple of dates set.

They will take on the University of Miami in the Hall of Fame Tip-Off tournament scheduled for Nov. 19, and will square off against Texas Christian University as part of the Big East-Big 12 Battle on Nov. 30.

The women's basketball schedule has not been released.
