The Owls will begin the 2016/17 campaign with a huge home game against Aston Villa.
The Championship curtain raiser unfolds on Sunday 7 August with a 4.30pm kick-off and will be broadcast live on Sky TV.
Villa came down from the Premier League last season and their visit to Hillsborough serves as their first since April 2000 – the year the Owls departed the top tier themselves.
