Cubs Expected to Be Awarded Upcoming MLB All-Star Game After Making Ballpark Changes

According to a Thursday report from Bruce Levine on 670 The Score, Wrigley Field, the historic home of the Chicago Cubs, will host the MLB All-Star game in 2027. Wrigley Field will be 113 years old by the time it hosts the '27 midsummer classic. The Cubs have not hosted an All-Star weekend since 1990 (but Chicago hosted it in 2003 when the White Sox had it).

Wrigley Field underwent dramatic renovations and restorations between 2016 and '18, and in more recent years, areas around the ballpark have been the focus. That has included increased security in the area near the park, which is uniquely positioned inside the space of just one city block with residential and retail businesses a stone's throw away from all sides.
