About Wrigley Field
Wrigley Field opened on April 23, 1914 as Weeghman Park for the Chicago Whales of the Federal League. It became the home of the Cubs in 1916 and was renamed Wrigley Field in 1927 after chewing gum magnate William Wrigley Jr. At 110+ years old, it is the second-oldest active MLB ballpark, behind only Fenway Park (1912).
The ballpark is famous for its ivy-covered outfield walls (planted in 1937), the iconic red marquee sign, the hand-turned center field scoreboard (in continuous use since 1937), and the rooftop seats on surrounding buildings along Waveland and Sheffield Avenues. Wrigley was the last MLB park to install permanent lights, hosting its first night game on August 8, 1988. A $750 million renovation project (2014-2023) modernized facilities while preserving the ballpark's historic character, adding the Gallagher Way plaza, new clubhouses, and improved restroom facilities. The Cubs broke their 108-year championship drought in 2016.
Restrooms Inside Wrigley Field
Wrigley Field has restrooms across all seating areas — Main Concourse (100 Level), Upper Deck (300 Level), and Bleachers. The $750 million renovation (2014-2023) significantly upgraded restroom facilities throughout the 110-year-old ballpark.
ADA-accessible restrooms are available on all levels. The ballpark has elevators for access between levels. For accessibility assistance, visit Guest Services at any gate. Note: Wrigley Field's historic layout means some areas have limited accessibility — check Cubs.com for specific accessible seating and restroom locations.
Family restrooms at Sections 113, 128 (Main Concourse), 307L, 326R (Upper Deck), and Upper Bleachers. A Mamava nursing pod is at the Gallagher Way Gate, and a nursing room is available through First Aid behind home plate.
Restrooms are accessible once inside the ballpark. Gates typically open 90 minutes before first pitch. Gallagher Way plaza outside has restrooms accessible during events. Bars on Clark Street also have restrooms.

Insider Tips
The CTA Red Line to Addison drops you one block from the ballpark. It's the best way to get here — parking in Wrigleyville is a nightmare on game days.
Upper Deck restrooms (300 level) tend to be less crowded than the Main Concourse, especially during mid-innings. The bleacher restrooms are also a good bet during the early innings.
The Mamava nursing pod at Gallagher Way Gate is outside the seating bowl — you can access it without fighting through concourse crowds. Download the Mamava app before you arrive.
Gates open 90 minutes before first pitch. Murphy's Bleachers and the Budweiser Brickhouse Tavern across the street have restrooms you can use while pregaming before the gates open.
Wrigley Field was built in 1914, so it doesn't have the wide concourses of newer stadiums. The restroom near Section 128 tends to have shorter lines than the ones near home plate.
The nursing room behind home plate (through First Aid) is a dedicated private space — ask any usher or Guest Services rep for directions.
