Tickets for these games go on-sale to the general public at 12:00 p.m. on Friday, April 2 and will only be available for purchase online.

Gates open at 1:00 p.m. ET and first pitch is scheduled for 2:05 p.m. for both games. With Major League Baseball pushing back the start of the 2021 Minor League season to May 4, these alternate site teams are composed of Triple-A and Major League caliber players.
“We are incredibly thankful to the Chicago Cubs and Major League Baseball for allowing us the opportunity to host fans at these games,” said South Bend Cubs Team President Joe Hart. “Just as the players need to stay conditioned for the upcoming season, our staff will use these games as a tune-up for the upcoming Minor League Baseball season.”
Tickets are $10.00 for General Admission and only 1,000 tickets will be sold. Tickets will not be available at the box office or by phone. When purchasing, fans will be able to select the section they would like to sit in. On gameday, they will be asked to physically distance themselves from other fans they may not know in that section. In compliance with MLB’s mandated buffer zone between players and fans, the first two rows will not be available and fans will not be permitted to ask for autographs.
Four Winds Field will have concessions available for purchase and the Miller Lite Tiki Hut, Steakadelphia Stand, and Cubs Den Team Store will also all be open.
These games will follow the State of Indiana’s guidelines set by the CDC. Fans will be asked to keep at least six feet away from guests they do not know. Hand sanitizers will also be placed throughout the stadium.
In accordance with Major League Baseball’s health and safety guidelines, face coverings must be worn at all times while in public areas like restrooms, on the concourse, entering and exiting the stadium, and walking down to the seating bowl. These coverings may be removed when actively eating and drinking while at your seat.
