Tallahassee Thomasville, FL, October 28, 2026 —

The owners of the Atlanta Dream said in an open letter that they had raised concerns months ago about scheduling conflicts affecting the WNBA Finals at Atlanta’s State Farm Arena. The conflicts involved other events and Atlanta Hawks games, and have led to Finals games being rescheduled and start times being adjusted for crucial matches.

The letter’s account links the arena’s competing commitments with changes to the Finals schedule. The trend summary does not identify the specific games affected, their original or revised dates and start times, or which other events contributed to the conflicts. It also does not provide the date of the letter or say when the owners first raised their concerns beyond describing that as months ago.

The owners’ statement establishes that they had previously flagged the issue, while the resulting schedule changes are described as necessary because of the conflicts. No details were provided about how the revised schedule was determined, whether the owners proposed alternatives, or what response they received from the league, the arena, or other parties.

The information available also does not specify how many Finals games were moved or whether the changes affected venues as well as start times. It names State Farm Arena as the site involved and identifies Atlanta Hawks games among the scheduling considerations, but gives no further explanation of the arena’s event calendar.

As a result, the open letter’s reported concern and the rescheduling are clear, but the scope and precise timing of the changes remain unspecified. No additional statements from the WNBA, the Hawks, or State Farm Arena were included in the information provided.
