They play the Newcastle Knights there on May 8, with tickets going on sale to members on Friday and the general public - if there are any left - the following day.
Capacity was reduced due to 6495 for the Knights game due to COVID-19 restrictions
The Raiders initially committed to play two games over two years in Wagga Wagga, but last year's trip was cancelled due to the coronavirus pandemic.
But both parties agreed to extend the partnership into a third year and will play there as part of the 2022 NRL season.
"The facilities in Wagga are fantastic and keep getting better with the help of a very committed rugby league community in the city," Raiders chief executive Don Furner said.
"We value a very strong supporter base in the Riverina and it's not a hard decision for us to commit to the Wagga game because everyone there wants to make it happen and can't do enough for our club, which is very much appreciated.
"We've had a great start to the new season and hopefully we can build on that form and put on a terrific game against the Knights for all of our Riverina supporters.
"I'd urge everyone to get in early to secure their tickets as demand will be high."
