Bristol Rovers will face Salisbury, Yeovil Town, Forest Green Rovers and Yate Town as part of our 2026 pre-season preparations.
Steve Evans’ Pirates will begin their hard work ahead of the 2026/27 Sky Bet League Two campaign in just a few short weeks, with a handful of fixtures arranged in the summer schedule.
As part of those arrangements, matches have been organised away to National League South side Salisbury, National League teams Yeovil Town and Forest Green Rovers, and Southern League Premier Division South Yate Town.
A Bristol Rovers XI will make the trip to The Raymond McEnhill Stadium to play Brian Dutton’s Salisbury on Saturday 11 July, with kick-off set for 2pm.
A week later, the Gas will journey to Hush Park for a pre-season test against Yeovil Town; a fixture which has become a staple of Rovers’ summer schedule in recent years. The game is set for Saturday 18 July, again with a 2pm kick-off.
A match at The Bolt New Lawn to play Robbie Savage’s Forest Green Rovers then follows just a few days later. The contest will take place on Tuesday 21 July with kick-off set for 7pm.
A busy pre-season schedule will continue on the evening of Friday 24 July when a Bristol Rovers XI travels to Lodge Road to play Yate Town. That game will also kick off at 7pm.
Ticketing information for the four matches will be confirmed in due course, as will confirmation of our other 2026 pre-season fixtures.
