John Mulaney Makes History As First Comedian To Headline Chicago’s Wrigley Field

John Mulaney will become the first stand-up comedian to headline Chicago’s historic Wrigley Field when he performs there July 11, 2026. The Everybody’s Live host revealed the news Tuesday night during a Cubs game, singing “Take Me Out to the Ballgame” before announcing the show from the broadcast booth. The venue regularly holds over 40,000 fans during baseball games, making this a massive undertaking for the comedian. “Look, if Mark Grace could come out there every day and just deliver ripping cigarettes, I can face down this crowd, too,” Mulaney said. He’s currently touring his Mister Whatever show with sold-out dates across the country through 2025. Tickets for the historic Wrigley Field performance haven’t gone on sale yet but are expected to draw tens of thousands of attendees.
