The word “playoffs” could refer to many different leagues, so more context is needed. Different sports also have very different playoff calendars.
Need more details
To give a useful answer, it is necessary to know at least:
- Which sport or league is meant (for example, NFL, NBA, MLB, NHL, college football, soccer league).
- If relevant, the country or region (for example, North American leagues vs European competitions).
Typical playoff windows
Without that context, only general timing ranges can be described:
- NFL playoffs usually run from early to mid-January through early February each season.
- NBA playoffs typically begin in mid-to-late April and run into June.
- MLB postseason usually starts in early October and ends with the World Series later that month or very early November.
What to do next
Please reply with which sport or league you mean (for example, “NFL playoffs this season” or “NBA playoffs 2025”), and then a specific date range can be provided.
