Official Event Page

The Red Sox play their 2027 home opener at Fenway Park on Thursday, April 1, 2027, against the Cincinnati Reds. The season begins a week earlier, on March 25 in Seattle, and the opener starts a four-game series with the Reds that runs through April 4. The club says it is the Reds' first visit to Fenway for a home opener. Game times for 2027 had not been announced when we checked, and the Red Sox note that all dates are subject to change.

More dates worth knowing

• Patriots' Day, Monday, April 19: the traditional holiday game, against the Cleveland Guardians, on the same day as the Boston Marathon.
• Los Angeles Dodgers: May 14-16 at Fenway.
• Sunday, July 4: a home game against the Baltimore Orioles, the club's first Independence Day home game since 2023.

Planning a trip around opening day

Opening day is one of the hardest tickets of the regular season, and early April in Boston can be raw, so bring a warm layer even for an afternoon game. Fenway Park sits in the Fenway neighborhood, and the Red Sox transit guide points fans to the Green Line; driving and parking around the ballpark on game days is slow and expensive. The ballpark's address is 4 Jersey Street.

We will update this page when the Red Sox publish the first-pitch time.
