Akron runs 2 pro teams across MILB and NCAAF — the RubberDucks (MILB) and the Zips Football (NCAAF). This page filters every live listing to August 21 – August 23 only — sorted by date so the earliest weekend start sits on top — so a Friday-night game, a Saturday matinee and a Sunday afternoon all surface in one feed.

Planning Your Akron Weekend

Akron has 11 games on the schedule this weekend (August 21 – August 23). RubberDucks, Zips Football stack their highest-demand matchups Friday through Sunday, so marquee games (rivalries, divisional clashes, premium opponents) often sell out the primary market fast. Verified resale floors regularly drop in the final 24–72 hours before first pitch or kickoff as sellers move inventory before it loses value. If you're locking in plans this week, check the grid below tonight, pick 2–3 candidate games, and watch prices into Friday morning. Weeknight pivots also work — a Tuesday or Wednesday home game routinely prices 30–50% under the Saturday date.
