Swansea City confirm 2026-27 pre-season schedule

Swansea City can confirm the club’s pre-season schedule ahead of the 2026-27 Championship season.

The first-team squad will report to Fairwood in the coming days for physical testing, before beginning their training programme.

The squad will spend a week in Austria between July 17 and July 24 to provide the opportunity to work in a different environment at a high-quality facility which allows full focus on the training and games schedule. 

Three fixtures will be played against high-calibre opposition during that week as we face Holstein Kiel, VFL Bochum and a soon-to-be-announced European top-flight side.

We will also hold a home friendly at the Swansea.com Stadium on Saturday, August 1. Spanish side CD Leganes will be the opposition and the game will kick-off at 3pm.

Behind closed doors fixtures – which will not be publicised or open to the public – will also be played during pre-season. 

Ticketing information for all the below fixtures will be confirmed soon.
