Chicago Red Stars to Host Historic NWSL Match at Wrigley Field

The June 8 game against Bay FC aims to enhance visibility for women's soccer and improve access for Chicago sports fans.

The Chicago Red Stars will play their first National Women's Soccer League match at Wrigley Field against Bay FC on June 8, marking a historic event for the team and the iconic Chicago venue.
The move to Wrigley Field is part of an effort to make the Red Stars more accessible to Chicago sports fans and to bring further visibility to women's soccer.
Laura Ricketts, majority owner of the Red Stars and part of the family that owns the Cubs, has expressed a commitment to addressing the team's stadium situation, with the aim of finding a more central location in Chicago.
The match at Wrigley Field is seen as an opportunity to tap into the largely untapped Chicago soccer market and to showcase the talent and competition level of the NWSL.
Ticket presales for the match will start on April 13 for Red Stars season ticket holders, with a public on-sale date set for April 17.
