Kansas City Royals TV Schedule
2026 Kansas City Royals schedule and game times
The last two seasons have been solid for the Kansas City Royals. With superstar Bobby Witt Jr. leading this young roster, I’m anxious to see how they fare in 2026, which is why I’ll be watching the Royals TV schedule closely.
With so many games in an MLB season, I understand that it could be hard to keep track of your favorite team. Plus, because 2026 marks the beginning of the new Royals.TV broadcast era, finding the right channel might be a bit confusing at first. I created this guide to help Royals fans know exactly which days the team is playing, what times, and where. Keep reading for all the TV information you could ever want.

Key dates for the 2026 Royals season
MLB seasons are pretty long, but also pretty exciting and dynamic. Below, I’ve highlighted some milestones during the Royals’ 2026 campaign that should be on every fan’s radar.
- Home Opener (March 30): The Royals play in front of their home crowd shortly after the season starts, with a late-March matchup against the Minnesota Twins.
- AL Central matchups: The Royals will be trying to thwart the Guardians, Tigers, Twins, and White Sox all season long in the fight for the division title. The first halves of April and May are loaded with games against AL Central opponents, so pay attention to those stretches as early indicators of how good the team will or won’t be in 2026.
- MLB All-Star Week (July 11–14): The Home Run Derby and All-Star Game are the two main draws for All-Star Week. Keep an eye on the fan voting to see if Bobby Witt Jr., Vinnie Pasquantino, or Cole Ragans represent Kansas City at Citizens Bank Park in Philadelphia.
- MLB Trade Deadline (Aug. 3): Kansas City might want to acquire some players before this year’s deadline, which is Monday, August 3, at 6:00 p.m. ET.
