Remaining 2026 Georgia home games in Athens
The remaining Sanford Stadium weekends are Missouri on November 14 and Georgia Tech on November 28. Those weekends can increase demand for downtown and near-campus hotels, restaurant reservations, parking, and rideshare service.
Auburn at Georgia — October 17
Georgia lost to Auburn 27–24 at Sanford Stadium on October 17. The Bulldogs are now 6–1 overall and 4–1 in SEC play.
Georgia vs. Florida — October 31 in Atlanta
The 2026 Georgia–Florida game is being played at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta rather than Jacksonville. Because this is not an Athens home game, visitors should not use normal Sanford Stadium parking or game-day assumptions for this matchup.
Missouri at Georgia — November 14
Missouri comes to Athens for another SEC home weekend. The kickoff time is still TBA, so avoid building a rigid Saturday schedule until the official time is announced.
Georgia Tech at Georgia — November 28
The regular season closes with Georgia Tech at Sanford Stadium. Thanksgiving weekend can create a different travel pattern from a normal home game, so confirm hotel policies, restaurant hours, and parking information before arriving.
