Wrigleyville Is About to Make History: John Mulaney Brings First-Ever Comedy Show to Wrigley Field — Plus a Pride Weekend at Gallagher Way
By Socialhood News · Il/Chicago/Wrigleyville ·
Wrigleyville neighbors, your summer just got even more legendary. Chicago's own John Mulaney is bringing his Mister Whatever Tour to Wrigley Field on Saturday, July 11 — and it's a genuine piece of history: the very first comedy event ever hosted at the Friendly Confines. The sold-out show marks a milestone not just for Mulaney, but for a neighborhood that has long proven its world-class entertainment credentials. And the good news keeps coming: folk sensation Noah Kahan is following it up with not one but two back-to-back nights at Wrigley Field on July 14 and 15 as part of his Great Divide Tour 2026, with special guests Gigi Perez and Annabelle Dinda rounding out the bill.
But the fun starts this weekend. Tonight, Friday June 26, Gallagher Way hosts another installment of the beloved Budweiser Concert Series right next door to the ballpark. Then on Saturday, June 27, Gallagher Way goes full rainbow for a Pride Family Celebration from 11 AM to 5 PM, followed by an evening Pride party starting at 6:15 PM — making the Wrigley Field campus one of the North Side's most welcoming destinations for Pride Weekend.
And in a major win for the neighborhood's long-term future, Wrigleyville Alderman Bennett Lawson (44th Ward) recently introduced a City Council ordinance calling for anti-terrorism-rated removable bollards around the ballpark and wider sidewalks along Addison Street — resolving a long-running security stalemate between the Cubs and City Hall. It's a neighborhood that just keeps leveling up. Grab your Mulaney and Noah Kahan tickets at mlb.com/cubs, swing by Gallagher Way this weekend for Pride, and tell your neighbors — what Wrigleyville summer moment are YOU most looking forward to?
