Atlanta Hawks vs. Orlando Magic

The Atlanta Hawks host the Orlando Magic at State Farm Arena on Saturday, December 19, 2026. It's a Southeast Division matchup, and it's the game that kicks off the Hawks' holiday homestand, so it's the first of a stretch of home games they'll play through the end of the year.

If you're planning to be there, there are a few ways to get a bit more out of the night. The team has a rewards program called Hawks Rewards, which you use through the Atlanta Hawks + State Farm Arena app. You can earn or buy upgrades like Early Entry, Pregame Courtside Access, and a Postgame Freethrow. If you're a Chase cardholder, you've got access to Chase Preferred Seating. And if you're bringing a group of seven or more, there are group tickets available. Ticketmaster is the official ticketing partner.

Parking is one of those things that's easier to have a plan for than to figure out on the fly. There are several decks around the arena: State Farm Drive, Diamond Deck, Sapphire Deck, and the Ruby Lot. Depending on where you're coming from, some will be a lot more convenient than others, so it's worth picking one before you head downtown.

Tip-off is at 7 PM, with doors opening at 6 PM. If you're a season ticket member, you can get in at 5:45 PM. Between the early entry and the parking options, you've got a good window to get settled before the game starts.
