Wrigley Field Still in Running for 2027 All-Star

The Chicago Cubs are actively pursuing the opportunity to host the 2027 MLB All-Star Game at Wrigley Field for the first time since 1990, but no official decision has been made despite reports to the contrary. Cubs and MLB officials have confirmed that while momentum is building in Chicago's favor, final approval is still pending. Security remains a primary concern due to Wrigley's location, leading to a proposed $30 million project for anti-terrorism bollards and sidewalk widening, funded jointly by the team, city, and state. These improvements are seen as pivotal for securing MLB approval, but logistical details such as accommodations must also be finalized. An official announcement could come later this summer if outstanding issues are resolved. Hosting the All-Star Game would mark a major milestone for Wrigley Field and the city of Chicago.
