WHY WRIGLEY FIELD CONCERTS ARE A MUST IN CHICAGO 2025
If you've never been to a concert at Wrigley Field, trust us when we say, it deserves a spot on your Bucket List! Why? For dozens of reasons. But here's our top 5.
1 Location
Wrigley is smack dab in the middle of a neighborhood - not a gigantic parking lot in the middle of the sticks. You can go early, enjoy the outdoor bars and restaurants - and chill with other concert goers. Or stop by after the concert for a detailed play by play! Of course, there are a lot of places to choose from - but here are some of our faves as a start!
1. For a genuine Wrigleyville experience, try Murphy's Bleachers or Sluggers! Classic Wrigley!
2. For the hands down, best burger in town, Small Cheval is fire.
3. If you're a BBQ buff, get the smoke at SmokeDaddy, Wrigleville
4. Gallagher Way boasts Budweiser Brickhouse Tavern, It's a touch more upscale - but fun!
2. Intimate
As outdoor venues go, Wrigley Field is intimate. There are no real "nosebleeds" like you see at a bunch of other venues. It's green, it's lush . . . it's the "friendly confines", and it exudes that spirit even on a concert nights. We can almost guarantee, you'll likely hook up with a few new peeps on TikTok or IG after a night arm-to-arm with them at Wrigley. It's just what happens here!
3. Easy Peasy
Wrigley is so easy to get to! From ACME, jump on the red line at Grand venue (a block away), and you're there in 20. From near north suburbs, grab a train, and you're there. For many north side neighborhoods, it's a quick walk or bike ride. Busses will transport you as well - Wrigley is easy.
4. All the Vibes
When you walk into Wrigley, you can feel the history - the warmth, the true vibe that is this hometown favorite, and one of the last few originals still standing. From the peeps at the ticket gates, to the concessions , and the ushers . . . they all want you to feel welcome, have a good time - and it shows! One look at the ivied wall, or the scoreboard, and you're hooked. History matters . . . even at a concert!
5. The Experts
Even the experts love it. Rolling Stone Magazine named Wrigley Field the top outdoor concert stadium or ballpark venue in the US! Plus . . . Look who's played at Wrigley - - The Boss, Gaga, Paul McCartney, Luke Bryan, Elton John . . . and Post Malone and Jelly Roll were just there in May! Who could argue with them?
