The Big 12 Conference women's basketball tournament is the championship women's basketball tournament in the Big 12 Conference. The tournament is set to be held at the T-Mobile Center in Kansas City, Missouri until 2031. Due to a major conference realignment that significantly impacted the Big 12, the 2025 women's tournament will be the first tournament with 16 teams participating. At the beginning of the 2024–25 season, Arizona, Arizona State, Colorado, and Utah joined the conference. The tournament is sponsored by Phillips 66. The Tournament has been held every year since 1997, except in 2020 when it was cancelled due to the coronavirus pandemic.
All sixteen teams will participate in the tournament. The top eight teams will receive a first round bye and the top four teams will receive a double bye, automatically advancing them into the quarterfinals. Seeding is based on regular season records, ties will be broken using a tiebreaker system, with the first tiebreaker being best record in head-to-head matchups then the 2nd tiebreaker being head-to-head record against each team in the conference beginning with the first place team and working down.
The championship game will be played on a Sunday, unless BYU advances to the final thus pushing the championship game to a Monday finish
Champions
Tournament champions receive an automatic bid to the year's NCAA Women's Division I Basketball Championship. Numbers in parentheses refer to each team's finish/seed in the tournament for that year.
