The Vegas Thrill will play 26 regular-season games in Major League Volleyball beginning in early next year. Team officials released the full 2027 schedule on Friday, confirming the club’s return to competition after a year-long operational pause. The season opener is set for Thursday, January 7, at 6:30 p.m. against the Omaha Supernovas. The final regular-season contest will take place on Friday, April 23, against the Los Angeles Thunder.

The schedule includes 13 home matches at Lee’s Family Forum in Henderson. Owner and CEO Michael Landier said the announcement marks the start of the countdown to the team’s return. He added that the organization looks forward to welcoming fans back to the arena for the upcoming season. The Thrill is led by head coach Rachel Morris, who will guide the squad through the transition period that included a change in local ownership.

The 2026 season was suspended while the team shifted its operations under Landier’s leadership. That pause allowed the franchise to finalize its new structure before returning to the court. The 2027 calendar now provides a concrete timeline for the club’s competitive comeback. Fans can expect a mix of home and away dates spread across the winter and spring months.

Several home game times have already been confirmed. The Thrill will host the Orlando Valkyries on Thursday, February 11, at 6:30 p.m. A home match against the DC Flight is scheduled for Friday, February 19, also at 6:30 p.m. The team will face the Minnesota Forge at home on Thursday, March 4, at the same time. Additional home games include a Thursday, March 25, matchup with the Grand Rapids Rise and a Thursday, April 1, contest against the Columbus Fury, both starting at 6:30 p.m.

The remaining home dates and all away game times are currently listed as to be determined. The club plans to announce additional broadcast details and specific start times for those matches at a later date. The schedule spans four months, with games occurring in January, February, March, and April. Opponents include teams such as the Minnesota Forge, the Indy Ignite, and the Dallas Pulse.

The Thrill has already finalized a 20-player roster in preparation for the upcoming season. Training camp for the players begins on Monday, November 2. This start date allows the team to prepare physically and tactically before the first scheduled game in January. The organization is encouraging supporters to subscribe to its email list to receive notifications about ticket availability and updated game information.
