Notre Dame Announces Future Football Series with Washington
Notre Dame has announced future football games against Washington, with a home-and-home series scheduled for 2031 and 2034, featuring a game at Notre Dame Stadium and another in Washington.
South Bend Elkhart, IN, November 10, 2026 — Notre Dame’s football program has scheduled a future non-conference series against the University of Washington. The agreement outlines a home-and-home series between the two major NCAA Division I Football Bowl Subdivision (FBS) programs.
The series is set to take place over two separate seasons, with games planned for 2031 and 2034. The matchups will include one game played at Notre Dame Stadium in South Bend, Indiana, and another game hosted in Washington state. Specific dates within those years and broadcast details were not immediately available.
This announcement adds to Notre Dame’s future non-conference scheduling, which often features matchups against prominent national programs. The Fighting Irish are known for their independent scheduling in football, though they do arrange several non-conference games each season.
The University of Washington, recently joining the Big Ten Conference, will participate in this series with Notre Dame prior to the full integration of their conference schedules. The terms of the agreement, including any financial considerations, were not disclosed. The timeframe for these games, more than seven years away for the first contest, places them well into the future of college football scheduling.
Further details regarding kickoff times and ticket information are expected to be released closer to the game dates. The announcement signifies a notable addition to future college football calendars for both participating universities and their fan bases.
