The Vegas Thrill will play 26 regular-season games in 2027, a number that marks the full return of competition to Lee’s Family Forum after a one-year hiatus. Team officials released the complete schedule on Friday, setting the stage for a season that begins in January and ends in April.
The regular season opens on Thursday, January 7, at 6:30 p.m. against the Omaha Supernovas. The final regular-season match is scheduled for Friday, April 23, also at 6:30 p.m., against the Los Angeles Thunder. Most game times remain to be determined, with only eight dates currently set for 6:30 p.m. starts.
The Thrill will host 13 of their 26 games at Lee’s Family Forum in Henderson. The remaining 13 contests will be played on the road. This home-and-away split mirrors the standard structure of Major League Volleyball, ensuring a balanced distribution of travel and local events across the four-month span.
Rachel Morris will serve as head coach for the upcoming campaign. The team recently finalized a 20-player roster to prepare for training camp, which is set to begin on Monday, November 2. This preparation follows an operational pause during the 2026 season, a period dedicated to transitioning the franchise to local ownership under Michael Landier.
Michael Landier, the owner and chief executive officer of the Vegas Thrill, stated that the countdown to the team’s return is officially on. "We can’t wait to welcome our fans back to Lee’s Family Forum for a spectacular season of Major League Volleyball," Landier said. Additional broadcast details and specific start times for the undecided games are expected to be announced in the coming weeks.
The schedule includes matchups against ten different opponents, including the Minnesota Forge, DC Flight, and Indy Ignite. Home games against the Orlando Valkyries and the NorCal Rumble are scheduled for February, while a home date against the Columbus Fury is set for April.
