The MLB All-Star Game is returning to Wrigley Field. On Friday, Major League Baseball announced Wrigley Field, home of the Chicago Cubs, will host the 2027 All-Star Game. It will be the fourth All-Star Game played at Wrigley and the first since 1990. The Friendly Confines also hosted the 1947 and 1962 Midsummer Classics.

The Cubs will host the 2027 Major League Baseball All-Star Game at Chicago’s Wrigley Field, commissioner Rob Manfred announced Friday morning. MLB’s 97th Midsummer Classic will take place on July 13 that year.

The Cubs' persistent lobbying efforts to land the All-Star Game lined up with the $1 billion Wrigleyville project.
