Penn Women's Basketball Announces 2026‑27 Ivy League Schedule
The University of Pennsylvania has released its full slate of conference games for the 2026‑27 season, a schedule that doubles as a celebration of the historic venue that has hosted countless memorable moments.
Centennial Celebration of The Palestra
The Palestra, an iconic basketball arena in Philadelphia, will turn 100 years old during the upcoming campaign, and the Quarks have woven the milestone into every facet of their planning.
The season opens on the road, with the Quakers traveling to Princeton on January 5 to begin Ivy League play against the Tigers.
A week later, Brown will host Penn in its Ancient Eight home opener on January 9, giving the Quakers a chance to test their early‑season form in Providence.
January continues with a pair of away trips to Dartmouth on January 16 and to Harvard on January 18, before the team returns to Philadelphia for a home matchup against Yale on January 23.
The Quakers will then close out the month with contests at Columbia and Cornell, rounding out a demanding but promising stretch of games.
February brings a return visit from Princeton, who will play at The Palestra on February 6, followed by home games against Columbia and Cornell later in the month.
The Quakers will test their mettle on the road again on February 20, traveling to New Haven, Connecticut, to face Yale in a historic venue.
A two‑game home stand against Dartmouth and Harvard is scheduled for February 26 and 27, providing a chance to finish the regular season on a high note.
The regular‑season finale is set for March 6, when Penn hosts Brown in the final conference matchup of the year.
Ivy League Tournament at The Palestra
The culmination of the season will be the 2027 Ivy League Tournament, scheduled for March 13‑14 at The Palestra, where the centennial celebration will reach its peak with a showcase of the league’s top teams.
