Take part in a Wrigley Field tradition that goes back to the first Opening Day in 1914 by watching baseball from a rooftop on Waveland Ave. Kick back and enjoy the game with fantastic ballpark food and ice cold beverages!  Don't pass up your opportunity to experience a Chicago Cubs game from one of the official rooftop partners across the street from Wrigley Field! 

One of the most unique, fun and entertaining tickets in all of sports. A must do for any baseball fan! The experience at any of the Wrigley Field Waveland rooftops is said to be a whole other ball game not only for the views but also the great comfort and service. From these rooftops, you get an unobstructed view of the entire infield, as well as the outfield areas of Wrigley Field, and the historic Wrigley Field scoreboard. Avoid all the crowds and confusion of the ball park without missing any of the excitement of the game.

Wrigley Field Waveland Rooftop Bleachers and Dining Package for (2)

Just pick the game and everything else will be arranged!  Unlike the ball field, your rooftop admission provides your seats, unlimited beverages (premium and domestic beers, California wines and soft drinks) and unlimited appetizers, entrees and desserts with a large and varied menu of popular Chicago summer fair served over the course of the game. Enjoy seasonal salads, Chicago-style hot dogs, BBQ chicken and burgers, snacks, cookies, brownies and chef’s specialties. Vegetarian items are available on request.  

Valid for the Chicago Cubs regular season games, subject to availability.  Excludes Boston Red Sox series (June 2012) and may exclude other premium series in future seasons.

Waveland Rooftops:

These recently renovated buildings offer fun in the sun with unique, eating-station bleacher systems. There are no assigned seats so everyone can mix and mingle with plenty of room to visit in the bleachers or in the shade. If an inviting indoor bar is more desirable, then hang out on the third floor of each building in an air conditioned elite sports bar with large screen TVs and great dramatic views of the game through floor-to-ceiling picture windows.

1010 Waveland - Everything is over sized! The bleachers are huge, the food and drink service bars are huge, even the pictures on the walls are over sized!  The club house level has two huge plasma screen TVs, two bars, a balcony looking into the park, great spaces for display boards or presentations and bar seating. The rooftop boasts a large beer garden, room to get in out of the sun, marble and granite restrooms, two massive bars–one for food and one for drinks, and rows and rows of “bar bleachers." This means each person is sitting at a bar with staggered heights where you can see the game bellied up!

1038 Waveland - A hip and modern vibe kick inside and out! The low club style seating, sleek shiny tall tables, and over-the-top artwork all immerse Cubs fans in a club-like game experience. The building boasts a modern elevator that can take you all the way to the top. On the rooftop, traditional box seats make you feel like you are in the game.

1048 Waveland – Enjoy the traditional feel and the historic photographs. On the rooftop deck, you will find a new addition to the Wrigley Field experience -- a massive roof top “bleacher bar” where you can sit at the individual bars and watch the game.
