MLB Field of Dreams Tickets Push Near $1,000, Even With Rain in Forecast
Fans clamor for seats as the local weather forecast remains uncertain.
As the third iteration of MLB's Field of Dreams game approaches, ticket demand remains strong, with resale pricing for Thursday's match in Dyersville, Iowa, reaching above $1,100. This is similar to the price point from the previous version of the special event game four years ago. On the primary market, tickets sold out months ago, with limited availability for Twins season-ticket holders and a lottery for Iowa residents.
The 2026 Field of Dreams game, set to stream exclusively on Netflix, will utilize a freshly built stadium at the filming site of the 1989 movie starring Kevin Costner. The stadium seats around 8,000 and includes permanent player locker rooms and new seating, a significant improvement from the temporary elements used in 2021 and 2022.
The event, scheduled after the All-Star Game and trade deadline, aims to create a memorable moment for the league. A practice run was held on Tuesday between the St. Paul Saints and the Iowa Cubs due to severe weather conditions, which caused minor damage in Dyersville. Thursday's forecast predicts more rain early in the day, but a pocket of drier weather is expected for the evening when the game is scheduled.
If rain intensifies, a rain date on Friday is available, currently an open date for the Phillies and Twins.
