If you’re an avid baseball fan, it’s time to start planning a spring or summer getaway to Chicago, Illinois! Chicago is home to the well loved Wrigley Field – known for its ivy-covered brick outfield wall, iconic red marquee over the main entrance, and their old hand-turned scoreboard.
There’s plenty of things to see and do at Wrigley Field itself and in the surrounding area. Complete your baseball-themed visit with these activities:
Book a tour of Wrigley Field.
Don’t miss the exciting opportunity to go behind-the-scenes of the legendary home of the Chicago Cubs with Wrigley Field Tours. This must-see Chicago attraction houses more than 100 years of history, and a tour provides the perfect introduction to the field.
Take your pick from daily tours, VIP tours, or group tours of Wrigley Field.
Or, take a self-guided walk around the field.
Be sure to take a few minutes to stroll around the outside of the ballpark, examining statues of some of the great players that dominate Cubs history, including Ron Santo, Ernie Banks, Billy Williams, and more.
Get decked out in Cubs gear.
Get in the spirit before the game by decking yourself out in the latest Cubs gear. There are many options for finding team merchandise and Cubs paraphernalia around Wrigleyville. If you’re looking for a recommendation, try Wrigleyville Sports across from the field, at 959 W. Addison St. Here you’ll find plenty of items, including Cubs t-shirts, jackets, hats, hoodies, sandals, glasses, and much more.
Have your photo taken.

Join in the fun.
