The Vegas Thrill will play 26 regular-season matches in 2027. The schedule was released on Friday, marking the first official calendar for the team since it paused operations during the 2026 season.
The regular season starts on Thursday, January 7, at 6:30 p.m. The Thrill will host the Omaha Supernovas for the opening contest.

Training camp begins on Monday, November 2. Players will report for the start of the physical preparation period. The team has not yet announced final broadcast details or times for most of the 26 games. The only confirmed times so far are for the opening match and several other home and away contests, which are set for 6:30 p.m.
The schedule includes matchups against ten different Major League Volleyball teams.
