St George Illawarra Dragons
The Dragons are pleased to confirm the club’s fixtures for the 2026 NRL and NRLW seasons.
2026 kicks off in tremendous fashion with the famous Red V making the journey stateside to do battle with rivals Canterbury at Las Vegas’ Allegiant Stadium.
It marks arguably the biggest opening to a season in club history with the rugby league community descending upon the entertainment capital of the world for a highly anticipated slate of games.
Fans will earn their first chance to catch the squad on Saturday, February 7 on the opening day of the NRL’s Pre-Season Challenge against Newcastle at Kogarah before taking on South Sydney in the annual Charity Shield the following weekend in Wollongong.
The club’s Wollongong opener comes against 2025 Grand Finalists Melbourne in Round 2 with our Kogarah opener slated for Round 5 against North Queensland.
Our traditional Anzac Day clash against the Roosters will be played in Round 8 at Allianz Stadium with a Magic Round showdown against Penrith booked in for Round 11.
The local derbies against Cronulla are in the calendar for Rounds 14 – in the Shire – and 23 – at Jubilee.
Five of the NRL side’s final seven games are home fixtures including a Round 25 battle with the Bulldogs at Allianz and a regular season finale against the Eels in Wollongong.
The Red V faithful will have the opportunity to catch a quartet of home NRL-NRLW double headers on July 4th, August 9th, August 22nd and September 6th.
Our NRLW squad begin their season with a Saturday afternoon showdown against the Raiders at Jubilee before they make their first WIN Stadium appearance the following Sunday against Parramatta.
NRLW Magic Round this year makes it way out to Wagga Wagga where the Red V will meet the Roosters.
Join your Dragons on the road to Vegas and back for all the blockbusters. Being part of the Red V is more than just a membership – it’s your connection, your passion, and your chance to be part of our Red V squad.
