John Mulaney will make Wrigley Field history next summer as the first comedian to headline a show at the venue, he announced during the Cubs game Tuesday.
“I’m very excited to say July 11, 2026, I’ll be the first comedian to ever play Wrigley Field,” the Chicago native said during the Cubs game against the New York Mets Tuesday.
Noting the size of the venue, that has a capacity of 41,000, Mullaney said, “look, if Mark Grace could come out there every day and just deliver — ripping cigarettes — I can face down this crowd too. I’m so excited for it.”
Pre-sale ticket registration for Mulaney’s “Mister Whatever” tour stop in the Windy City is available on the Major League Baseball website.
