Some of these sporting events are aired live or on a delayed telecast by ABS-CBN Sports+Action and ABS-CBN Channel 2. All the men's basketball games and the women's volleyball games are aired live by ABS-CBN Sports, the former for the fifteenth consecutive year following the renewal of the contract for the broadcast of the games and the latter since Season 69 (2006−07).

Season 77 kicked off at 12:30 P.M. on Saturday, July 12, 2014 at the Smart Araneta Coliseum with University of the East (UE) as the host school. This year's theme was "Unity in Excellence". Eight huge spheres were hanged from the ceiling of the coliseum representing the different universities united in the pursuit of excellence.

The opening ceremony featured a parade of the "constellations," with students portraying legendary figures from Greek mythology such as Zeus, Andromeda, Pegasus and Orion. Team captains of the basketball teams of the eight participating schools were introduced riding on Segways. UE Red Warriors team captain Bong Galanza led the oath of sportsmanship.

A basketball double header followed after the opening ceremonies. Host school UE took on the UP Fighting Maroons, while the defending champion De La Salle Green Archers was pitted against the FEU Tamaraws.

The UAAP Season 77 beach volleyball tournament began on August 23, 2014. The tournament venue was the University of the East (UE) sand courts in Caloocan, Metro Manila. Beach volleyball is a single round-robin elimination tournament. Adamson University was the tournament host.
