Some fans of the Major League Baseball (MLB) team Chicago Cubs will be living in luxury when they visit the Wrigley Field in Chicago, Illinois (US) during the 2025 season.

‘bleacherreport.com’ stated that as the Major League Baseball (MLB) relayed recently the Cubs will offer new seats in the center field that come with unlimited drinks – including beer, seltzer and wine – and meals for each guest.

New York (US)-based the Major League Baseball (MLB) is a professional baseball league composed of 30 teams divided equally between the National League (NL) and the American League (AL) with 29 in the United States and 1 in Canada.

The Chicago Cubs are an American professional baseball team based in Chicago (US). The Cubs compete in the Major League Baseball (MLB) as a member club of the National League Central Division. The club plays its home games at the Wrigley Field which is located on Chicago’s North Side.

The 41,649-capacity Wrigley Field is a ballpark on the North Side of Chicago, Illinois (US). It is the home ballpark of Major League Baseball (MLB) team Chicago Cubs.

‘bleacherreport.com’ further stated that the seating area (that is being called ‘The Yard’) can fit as many as 50 fans in all with groups of four to six guests being the ones who can purchase the tickets up to 90 minutes prior to the start of the game.

The private rental areas were added in a way that none of the previous bleacher seats were removed so it won’t impact attendance and the number of general-admission seats in the outfield that can be sold.

The Cubs have done similar things like that in the past with the private rental areas such as the Hornitos Hacienda in the left field and the Budweiser Patio in the right field.

Every rental features a table with high-top seating and those in attendance can choose their meal option from a menu that includes a Small Cheval burger, Vienna Beef hot dog or vegetarian option.

Narrated Cale Vennum, Cubs Senior Vice-President of Ticketing, “The fans often tell us that the Wrigley Field is their Summer home so we wanted to create a space that feels like their own backyard. ‘The Yard’ not only offers a cozy and intimate setting but also addresses the feedback we’ve received about creating bleacher options for the smaller groups. The historic Budweiser Bleachers have a unique energy unlike anything in Major League Baseball. ‘The Yard’ sits in the middle of the action but provides an elevated gameday experience in an all-inclusive and reserved space for a few friends or family members.”

The Cubs fans who purchase tickets in ‘The Yard’ will surely hope to see a playoff team this season after Chicago missed out on the postseason in each of the last four campaigns. Its last playoff win came during the 2017 run to the National League Championship Series which was the season following its 2016 World Series title.

The National League Championship Series (NLCS) is a best-of-seven playoff and one of two League Championship Series comprising the penultimate round of Major League Baseball’s (MLB’s) postseason. It is contested by the winners of the two National League (NL) Division Series.

The World Series is the annual championship series of the Major League Baseball (MLB). It has been contested since 1903 between the champion teams of the American League (AL) and the National League (NL).
