Augusta Aiken, GA, October 13, 2026 — The Atlanta Dream is set to host Games 3 and 4 of the WNBA Finals at State Farm Arena, opting for the larger downtown venue over their usual home, the Gateway Center Arena.

State Farm Arena, known for its significantly larger seating capacity, will provide a bigger stage for the WNBA Finals games. This move is expected to accommodate a greater number of fans eager to support the Dream during the championship series. The exact nature of the scheduling conflicts at the Gateway Center Arena was not specified.

The shift in venue highlights the importance of adequate facilities for high-profile sporting events like the WNBA Finals. The capacity limitations at the Gateway Center Arena were a determining factor in the decision to relocate the games to the more expansive State Farm Arena.

Further details regarding ticketing and fan information for the WNBA Finals games at State Farm Arena are anticipated to be released in the coming days, as the team prepares for the significant postseason event.
