About 2026 World Series
The World Series is the best-of-seven championship series of Major League Baseball, played between the winners of the American League and the National League. The Los Angeles Dodgers won the 2025 World Series against the Toronto Blue Jays in seven games.
MLB has scheduled Game 1 of the 2026 World Series for Friday, October 23, 2026. The two teams will be decided by the playoffs, which began with 12 teams. The series ends when one team wins four games.
This countdown uses 00:00 UTC on October 23, 2026 as a placeholder time, because MLB sets the first pitch time closer to the game. Games are usually played in the evening US time, which is early the next morning in UTC.
