FC Halifax Town's 2026-27 National League fixture schedule has been published, outlining a 36-match campaign that begins in September. The club, which finished 8th last season with 70 points, will open at home against AFC Hornchurch on Saturday, September 12, 2026, with a 10:00 AM kickoff.

The immediate schedule sees a quick turnaround, with a trip to face Wealdstone just three days later on Tuesday, September 15. The full list of away venues for the season includes trips to Sutton United, Worthing, Boston United, and a long journey to face Carlisle United.

The opening month sets a challenging tempo. After the curtain-raiser against Hornchurch at The Shay, Halifax must travel to Wealdstone. Further early-season tests include visits to Solihull Moors and Gateshead. The club will be aiming to improve on their goal difference from the 2025 season, where they scored 69 but conceded 66. Fans can track every match on the club's official fixtures page.

Travel is a significant factor in the National League, and FC Halifax Town face some lengthy journeys. The schedule includes southern trips to face sides like Yeovil Town, Eastleigh, and Aldershot Town. Northern clashes with Hartlepool United, Scunthorpe United, and Barrow are also on the docket. A notable fixture will be the visit to Forest Green Rovers, a club with recent Football League experience.

Halifax head into the new season on the back of a solid but unspectacular 2025 campaign. Their final record of 20 wins, 10 draws, and 16 losses left them 38 points behind champions York. Their recent form at the end of that season was a mixed bag, recorded as WLDDW. The new fixture list presents a fresh opportunity to close that substantial gap at the top of the table. The current standings reflect last season's finish, providing a benchmark for the year ahead.

While the published list includes 36 fixtures, the full National League season comprises 46 matches. This means ten additional games will be scheduled, including return legs against every opponent. Managing the squad across this marathon, especially with midweek matches like the early trip to Wealdstone, will be vital. The depth and fitness of the playing group, will be tested.

The 2026-27 season for FC Halifax Town commences at 10:00 AM on Saturday, September 12, at their home ground in Halifax.
