Pair an A's game (from 2028) with the Triple-A Las Vegas Aviators in Summerlin, plus the Golden Knights or Raiders, using official venues and typical season months.
Quick answer: Starting in 2028, you can pair an A's game on the Strip with a Las Vegas Aviators game at Las Vegas Ballpark in Summerlin. Add the Golden Knights at T-Mobile Arena in spring or the Raiders at Allegiant Stadium in September. No 2028 schedules are out, so treat this as a planning framework, not a date list.
Which Teams Can You Combine?
Las Vegas now has four teams worth building a trip around, and each plays in its own building:
- Athletics (MLB): moving to a new ballpark on the former Tropicana site at Las Vegas Boulevard and Tropicana Avenue, targeting "Opening Day 2028," confirmed by the team. Until then, the A's play in West Sacramento at Sutter Health Park.
- Las Vegas Aviators (Triple-A): play at Las Vegas Ballpark in Summerlin. MLB lists them in the Pacific Coast League as the Athletics' Triple-A affiliate.
- Vegas Golden Knights (NHL): play at T-Mobile Arena, which the team's official site describes as "in the heart of the Las Vegas Strip."
- Las Vegas Raiders (NFL): play at Allegiant Stadium, which lists itself as the "Proud Home Of" the Raiders and UNLV football.
When Do the Seasons Overlap?
Exact 2028 dates are not published, but recent official schedules show the general shape of each season:
- MLB: the 2026 regular season ran from March 25 to September 27, with the postseason scheduled into late October (MLB Stats API).
- Triple-A: the 2026 regular season ran from March 27 to September 20 (MLB Stats API).
- NHL: the Golden Knights' 2025-26 regular season ran from October 8, 2025 to April 15, 2026 (NHL schedule data).
- NFL: the Raiders' 2026 schedule has preseason starting August 13 and the regular season running from September 13 into early January (Raiders.com).
That gives you three rough windows:
- Spring (late March to mid April): baseball is starting and the NHL regular season is finishing. This is the window for an A's, Aviators and Golden Knights weekend.
- Summer (May to August): baseball only, A's and Aviators. Simple to plan, but very hot outside.
- September: baseball is finishing and the NFL is starting. This is the window for an A's and Raiders weekend, with the Aviators possible before their season ends.
Those windows are based on recent seasons. Leagues adjust their calendars, so check the 2028 schedules before you book anything.
How Would a Two-Ballpark Weekend Work?
The simple version is one game at each park. The A's ballpark is on the south end of the Strip, near resorts like MGM Grand and Excalibur, according to the Las Vegas Review-Journal. The Aviators are in Summerlin, on the west side of the valley, so plan a car or rideshare for that leg rather than assuming you can walk.
A few planning ideas that do not depend on unannounced details:
- Check both schedules first. The two teams will not necessarily be home on the same weekend. Look for a series where one is home Friday or Saturday and the other is home Sunday, or vice versa.
- See the prospects, then the big leaguers. Because the Aviators are the A's Triple-A affiliate, you may see players at Las Vegas Ballpark who later show up on the Strip.
- Stay near the Strip ballpark. It keeps the A's game walkable and puts T-Mobile Arena and Allegiant Stadium in the same part of town. Our hotels guide covers the options near the A's site.
- Plan for the heat in summer. The A's ballpark is reported to be enclosed and air-conditioned, but the walks between venues are outdoors. See our weather and what-to-bring guide.
Can You Add a Golden Knights or Raiders Game?
Quick answer: Starting in 2028, you can pair an A's game on the Strip with a Las Vegas Aviators game at Las Vegas Ballpark in Summerlin.
Yes, in the right window. Both venues have official getting-there pages. T-Mobile Arena says it has no on-site parking and points fans to prepaid reserved parking at Park MGM, New York-New York and Aria, plus the RTC and the Monorail. Allegiant Stadium lists on-site lots, MGM resort parking, a rideshare area and an RTC Game Day Express. Check each venue's page before your trip, since those details can change by event.
Ticket timing is different for each team. For the A's, the team says single-game tickets go on sale "closer to opening," and our season tickets guide explains priority access.
What Is Still Unknown
- The 2028 MLB, Triple-A, NHL and NFL schedules. None have been released.
- The A's first game date. The team has confirmed only "Opening Day 2028."
- A's single-game ticket prices and on-sale date.
- Whether the A's and Aviators will be scheduled to avoid or create overlapping home dates.
- Game-day transit for the A's ballpark, including bus routes, rideshare zones and shuttles.
