Virginia’s first home game of the season, Sept. 1 vs. Richmond, will start at 6 p.m., while its second home game on Sept. 15 vs. Ohio will kick off at 3 p.m. Both the Richmond and Ohio games will be broadcast on ACC Network Extra.

The Cavaliers’ Nov. 2 home Friday game against Pittsburgh will start at 7:30 p.m. and be broadcast on ESPN2.

After the first three weeks of the season, game times and TV network selections will be announced weekly with the ACC’s television partners making their choices utilizing a 12-day advance notice beginning Monday, Sept. 10 (for games on Saturday, Sept. 22). ACC television partners also reserve the right to use a six-day selection notice on a limited basis during the season.

Single-Game Tickets

Single-game pricing for the non-conference games against Richmond (Sept. 1-Paint the Town Orange), Ohio (Sept. 15-Youth Day) and Liberty (Nov. 10 – Fan Appreciation Day) range in price from $15 to $50, while ACC home games against Louisville (Sept. 22 – Military Appreciation Day), Miami (Oct. 13 – Homecomings), North Carolina (Oct. 27 – Family Weekend) and Pitt (Nov. 2 – University Night) are $25 to $60.

Mini-Packages

  • Early access to purchase single-game tickets to home and away contests
