Two of the WNBA's most formidable defensive units go head-to-head as the 2026 Finals tip off, with the Atlanta Dream hosting the Golden State Valkyries at State Farm Arena.
For the Dream, this marks their fourth Finals appearance - yet they are still chasing that elusive first title. The Valkyries, meanwhile, are making waves in just their second season as a franchise.
Game 1 takes place on Saturday, with the full series mapped out across the rest of October. Game 2 follows on 19 October at 8:00 p.m. ET, and Game 3 is set for 21 October. Should the series extend, further contests are pencilled in for 24, 26, 29, and 31 October.
Fans looking to attend can find seats on StubHub, where prices start at $70. Lower-level tickets come in at around $250, while riser seating is listed at $460.
Both sides have built their playoff runs on suffocating defence, which promises a tense, tightly contested series. Atlanta will look to draw energy from their home crowd, but Golden State have already shown they can thrive under pressure in their brief existence. Something has to give.
