Wrigley Field
Best time to visit
Early evening weekday games have smaller crowds and cooler temperatures, arrive 45 minutes before first pitch to explore concourses and plazas. Late spring through early fall offers the best weather and full rooftop views.
Budget tips
Wrigley Field tours are typically around $30-35, while game tickets range from about $20 for upper-deck seats to $200+ for premium spots; buy in advance and target weekday games for lower fares. Skip stadium parking by taking the Red Line to Addison or reserving a neighborhood lot ahead of time to save money.

About
Fakta singkat: Crowds pack roughly 41,000 seats under a famous ivy-covered outfield wall, and the hand-turned scoreboard still updates by people, not electronics. Game-day sounds include the clack of manual scoreboards, vendors calling out hot dogs, and the distinct clang of the nearby el train passing by just beyond right field.
Sorotan: A hand-operated scoreboard still gets updated by real people during games, the worn numbers and wooden panels giving an audible, analog rhythm you don’t get at modern stadiums. Fans swap the tale of tavern owner Billy Sianis and his goat, Murphy, who were ejected during a World Series game, a quirky story that fueled decades of superstition and colorful chants.
Insider tips
- Wear a light jacket for evening games, the wind off Lake Michigan can make it feel cooler than expected.
- Photograph the ivy from the center of the outfield bleachers and capture the skyline from rooftops on Sheffield Avenue.
- Arrive 45 minutes before game time to visit the team store and walk the concourses before lines build up.
- Use the Red Line to Addison to avoid high parking fees, or reserve a nearby lot online if driving is necessary.
