Overview

  • Head coach Jose Fernandez, speaking Tuesday on a media call, said the Wings will play all 2027 home games at the American Airlines Center in Dallas.
  • After the disclosure, CEO Greg Bibb said the team remains in advanced talks, with no signed agreement or WNBA approval yet for a full-season venue change.
  • Delays pushed the new $81 million practice facility to spring 2027 and the move into the renovated Dallas Memorial Auditorium to 2028.
  • For 2026, the Wings will stay at 7,000-seat College Park Center in Arlington, with three home dates already set at the 20,000-seat American Airlines Center.
  • Dallas City Council voted in March to fund $57 million of the practice facility’s $81 million budget, with the Wings covering the remaining $24 million.
