Hey Atlanta! I don’t know about you, but as sports fans, we’re buzzing with excitement for the 2026 WNBA season. In fact, it’s a Dream! This article will show you the 2026 Atlanta Dream schedule.
After a breakout 2025 campaign that saw the Dream post a franchise-best 30-14 record and make the playoffs, head coach Karl Smesko has the squad primed for a deep title run.
2026 Atlanta Dream Schedule Preview: Championship Dreams Take Flight in Atlanta!
The core is locked in — Allisha Gray, Rhyne Howard, Jordin Canada, Brionna Jones, and Naz Hillmon all re-signed — and the front office made a blockbuster move by acquiring two-time All-Star Angel Reese in a trade with Chicago. Add in key draft picks like Madina Okot and promising depth pieces, and this roster has serious championship DNA.
The Dream will play in a new 44-game regular season slate featuring expanded matchups against new foes like the Toronto Tempo, Golden State Valkyries, and Portland Fire. Expect high-octane offense, elite rebounding (hello, Reese and Jones), and that signature Atlanta grit.
Home games will split between the energetic Gateway Center Arena @ College Park and bigger-stage nights at State Farm Arena.
Tip-off is right around the corner — preseason starts April 29, and the regular season opens May 10 on the road.
The Dream are no longer just competing — they’re contenders. Let’s pack the stands and make every night at home a statement. Here’s your complete look at the 2026 schedule:
