MLB Game
The Major League Baseball will return to the site for the third time on August 13, 2026 for a game between the Philadelphia Phillies and Minnesota Twins, the league announced Wednesday.
The first game featured the Chicago White Sox and New York Yankees in 2021, and the Chicago Cubs played the Cincinnati Reds in 2022.
The series has been on hold as the grounds underwent renovation, including adding a new youth baseball and softball complex and a renovated stadium to host games.
Northwoods League All-Star Game
The Field of Dreams will host a two-day event for the Northwoods League, with the Northwoods League Home Run Challenge on July 7 and the All-Star Game on July 8.
More youth sports
The site is building a youth sports complex with four parks in summer 2026. The complex eventually plans to expand up to 10 fields.
The site says it hosted 575 youth baseball teams this year, a record number for the site. It says 204 teams have already signed up for 2026.
Youth softball registration will open in early January.
‘Bring it Home’ campaign
The Field of Dreams launched a $120 million capital campaign to fund preservation of the original movie site, the ballpark, the youth sports complex and leadership programming.
They hope to raise $40 million more to reach their goal.
In fundraising efforts, there will be an upcoming invitation for anyone to buy and own a “stalk” from the Field of Dreams.
