    Spring Training 2026: Cubs vs. White Soxs
    Joneice B.

    What a fun time at Sloan Park. Recent transplants from Chicago, we had to catch Cubs vs. Sox during spring training. This game was nearly sold out. Our section was filled with Indiana people, which was fun. How often do you sit next to people from Fort Wayne and Crown Point. Which is great to me since I used to spend summers in Fort Wayne and Indianapolis as a kid. Anyway, clean stadium. Lots of Chicago food. My husband grabbed an Italian Beef, they tried to make it wet (dipped) but not the true Chicago style, probably for sanitary reasons. I got a Chicago dog to include celery salt. All the true Chicagofood here. Only thing I didn't see was a Pizza Puff. We really enjoyed our time here. Recommend on busy games that you take advantage of parking at Riverview or Tempe Marketplace. One it is free, and two it was easy to get out. Very fun first full weekend back in AZ. White Sox's crushed the Cubbies and we had a nice day enjoying the sunshine. Big bonus to this stadium for allowing you bring a water and small snacks. We had our water and some pretzel to keep our stadium food cost lower. We still spent plenty, those frozen Italian Ices were so worth it.

    Went to the Cub's 2026 Spring Trainer opener against the Chicago White Sox. We parked in the Mesa Riverview Shopping Center and took the free shuttle to the park. After the game we ended up walking to our car, since there is only one shuttle and the wait can be up to 30-40 minutes, more time than the walk. Sloan Park is a beautiful park, and has many features similar to Wrigley, including dimensions and food! It is not an inexpensive experience , tickets, food, drinks and merchandise are not cheap, but it is a great experience.

    So I didn't come to Sloan Park for a baseball game. I was here helping out for the 2026 Mesa Marathon and what fun it was. There were tons of volunteers and vendors talking with the over 10k runners that came out this year to run. The event organizers had an everything well organized and was executed well. Everyone was really nice and polite. By the looks of this stadium it's well maintained and kept really clean. My next step at some point is to co.e back for a spring training game with all of this beautiful weather that Mesa has to offer.

    This review is solely for the team store. Let's be for real right now - as a lifelong Cubs fan not only have prices and the experience gone up exponentially but so has the merchandise. What used to be what would be considered an affordable experience especially for a family is now an expensive outing. I did not attend a game this time at Sloan. I was across town at Surprise watching them lose against the Texas Rangers. However, I did stop by the team store because I was looking for something specific and I wasn't expected to be in Chicago anytime soon. Aside from the merchandise being very basic including the spring training items. All of the items are excessively expensive. 30+ dollars for a basic T-shirt 50+ dollars for a hat. Now, I'm by myself so imagine a family of four going in there to purchase some merch to support their team that could be several hundred dollars. That's my biggest complaint. Hopefully someone will read this. Customer service is very nice. Do you want to mention that. It's a little tricky to get over there on a game day. I believe I entered the Rio salado streets and then was directed to the parking lot directly in front of the team store because I did not need to pay for parking as I was not staying for the event. Oh, and by the way, parking was $12. It was free across town at the Texas Rangers Stadium in Surprise. Will I come back? Probably to see a game. But I might just end up saving my experience when I'm back in Southern California or back in Chicago. I don't expect my review to have any impact on the pricing levels, but it should be noted that merchandise and/or an experience at Sloan Park or even Wrigley is going to end up pricing out a lot of people.

    A great experience to see the CUBS spring training 2026. You have a more personal feeling compared to Wrigley field in Chicago. The players are much closer.

    I love the forked the parking can get hectic as clearly no on thought it out. But you will most likely end up on the grassy mounds parked for spring training the fields are beautiful the attention to detail if you been a cubbies fan and haven't been to Chicago this park/forked will give you some tastes of what north chi town and the cubbies bring to baseball.

    First of all- Go WHITE SOX! Had a great time at spring training. The stadium was clean, easy to get around, and overall just a really fun atmosphere. We decided to park off-site since the stadium parking felt a little steep, and that worked out totally fine. Concession prices were about what you'd expect at a ballpark (no surprises there), and ticket prices were actually pretty reasonable. All in all, a really good experience and a fun day at the park. Would definitely go back!

    Was able to watch a game here and had a great time. The Cubs prospect team was playing the Angels prospect team and it was great. Cubs won! It was open seating for GA so we picked a spot on the far left of the field. Here we were entertained by the jumbo screen and the kids body slamming each other for the flyway balls out on the grass. Bought a bag of kettle corn for $10 and the worker was nice. Security and police were all over the premises so we felt very safe. Shuttle service from Riverview must've not been running on this day because we stood at Riverview along with 40 other people and it never showed up. We ended up leaving after the game had already started. We ended up finding a spot at the park and walking over to Sloan instead. We did check online for any shuttle update but none was posted.

    First time to Sloan Park, not the last. Nestled in W. Mesa, we arrived right in the thick of Spring Training. Sloan Park is the home of the Cubs Spring Training. Although less than half of the size of Wrigley, you can still feel the love for the game here as much as Clark and Addison. You have plenty of Cubby fans, local beers, Chicago dogs, Taste of the Windy City, and ... when the occasion arises, Clark flies the big W banner here. We parked in the general admission lot in front of the Courtyard Marriott and walked over and entered via the right outfield entrance. Along the way we passed the Cubs Store, and the Spring Straining Marquee. The bathrooms are clean, the beer men are readily available and engaging. The travelling concessions make frequent passes, as do the folks pushing the 50/50. WARNING: Concessions will be charging airport prices! As with anywhere We got seats right behind home plate. My daughter was amazed at everything she could here, between the zipping of the pitches, the pop of the catchers mitt, or the crack of the bat. We were saved by the net a few times, but it was very safe and the fans around us were super cool. If you can get there early, you should do so to avoid the parking situation. The parking is organized but moves slowly because of the congestion, but it moves...of course, if you get in the wrong line , you may have to circle again. If we come tomorrow we will try to take the shuttle from the shopping center. It was fun. My kids enjoy following this team and enjoy watching the players and singing during the 7th Inning stretch. After the game we walked over to the outfield lawn and hung out there while the kids tossed the ball around. Smiles all around. We recommend.

    Who doesn't love baseball?! Went again for Spring Training last night to enjoy it. Parking is SURELY a nightmare, no matter when you arrive, so plan accordingly. I parked towards the back by the office building, which wasn't too horrible. Inside the park, expect crowds and pricey treats. But if you weren't expecting that, here's your notice. 2 hot dogs, 2 drinks, and, 1 order of fries cost me $45!! The game was wonderful, seats were great - however no one was enforcing seat assignments. All in all, a wonderful night at the ball park!

    Great place to bring the family to for a fun day of baseball! Plenty of space for the kiddos to roam around and fun games for them to play! Looking forward to coming back again!

    I've never been to a Cubs Spring training game, but I've been here in the surrounding roads and parking lots for the Mesa Marathon. I have found that the grounds are kept in very good condition each time that I'm here. So even if I've never made it inside the park, it's still a nice venue for the finish line of a marathon and the post race celebration.

    We are fortunate here in Arizona to be one of two states that hosts MLB spring training games. Sloan Park has been home to the Chicago Cubs since 2014 and is the newest of all the spring training facilities in the Cactus League. It is also the largest spring training stadium in Arizona. The Cubs have been practicing in Arizona since the 1950s and have a huge fan base here in the Valley. Several popular Chicago restaurants have opened up in Arizona with a couple of them like Portillo's and Lou Malnati's being just a few miles from Sloan Park. This is one of the nicer ballparks in Arizona. Sloan Park features a red marquee sign that mimics the famous sign on the front of Wrigley Field in Chicago. The food is a variety of Chicago cuisine favorites. They serve plenty of alcohol with a couple of large bar areas in the outfields and beer vendors walking around everywhere. For me, Spring Training is all about the lawn seats. I like to grab a hot dog and a beverage and camp out on the grass and enjoy the spring weather. I love the relaxed atmosphere and the opportunity to see your favorite players in a more chill environment. There is parking around the stadium. You can also park at nearby Mesa Riverview and either walk over or take the free shuttle that drops you off near the park. Sloan Park hosts Arizona Fall League games and other events like concerts and food festivals. There are plenty of places to eat near the stadium at Mesa Riverview, Tempe Marketplace or in the Asian District. Sadly spring training has become so popular that MLB has made it a cash grab by jacking up the ticket prices. Not that long ago, lawn seats use to be $5-$10 for these practice games. It was also easier to get an autograph from a ballplayer. Now players are less accessible and lawn seats will run you $30 or more. I still go because I love baseball and have been following the sport for years. But I feel for large families with kids and how much they have to pay to come to these games. Even though I am not a Cubs fan, I have many friends from Chicago here in Arizona and respect their team and its long history. I have been to Wrigley Field in Chicago and even took a tour of it. I find Cubs fans less annoying than Dodger or Yankee fans. I have caught a number of games here at Sloan Park with some of my Chicago buddies. Here is to another great season of baseball! Play Ball!

It was about the perfect amount of activity for us as we got to try each of the activities once. There's about 8 active games including a batting game, tennis game, QB throw, field goal kick, boxing, skiing, soccer and more. Most of the games have a scoreboard that will display your score and have the top scores of the all time, weekly and daily. It's fun to see your name up on the scoreboard even when your score may be pretty brutal compared to the all-time greats. The staff was very helpful in checking us in and letting us know how each game works. There's a few games that are pretty simple and others that require some setting up (like getting boots and strapped in for the skiing. I enjoyed the QB throw the most but it looked like the bouncy basketball court was the most popular while we were there. We went on the Friday night and it wasn't very crowded...only have to wait maybe 5 minutes for any activity to open up. The place was pretty clean except I did notice they didn't spray down to clean the batting helmets after each person...that was kind of gross to put on the helmet and feel some sogginess. This may be a fun place for holding a birthday party for kids as they have ice cream, cereal and party rooms overlooking the area. For me it's probably a one and done visit, but we need more places like this where kids and families and have some good indoor activities besides bounce parks.

The arena itself is well-designed, clean, and easy to navigate, with plenty of excellent food options that go beyond the typical stadium fare. Whether you're looking for classic concessions or something a little more elevated, there's a great variety to choose from. The one major downside was the beverage pricing. The drinks are extraordinarily overpriced--a simple whiskey and Coke cost $25, and it was served in what looked to be about a 6-ounce cup, making it difficult to justify the cost. While premium venue pricing is expected, this felt excessive even by arena standards. Aside from that, the overall experience was enjoyable. The arena is impressive, the atmosphere is lively, and the wide selection of food makes it a great place to spend an evening. If beverage prices were a bit more reasonable, it would easily be an exceptional experience.

People were constantly moving in and out of seats between innings, making it obvious there was little to no enforcement. If this is how seating is managed, there's really no reason to spend extra money on premium tickets. You may be better off buying the cheapest seat available and simply moving to a better section after the game starts. Unfortunately, it also seemed like many staff members were more focused on socializing and eating in the stands than monitoring seating areas or addressing the issue. Overall, the experience left me feeling like paying extra for better seats was a waste of money.

We arrived fairly early for the ceremony, and were able to grab some solid seats in the shade. There are several concession stands and other food options surrounding the seating, and we found the prices to be pretty typical compared to other sporting venues. The concession stands were mostly well stocked ... with the exception of soft pretzels, which ran out before the ceremony began, and we were told to go check another stand after waiting in a 20 minute line. No thanks, we don't need a pretzel that badly! Entering the stadium was no problem, as there was a steady flow of folks filing in without any major slow-downs. Exiting, however, was a different story. This may just be par for the course with graduation, but the exit stairs were completely full, and felt rather unsafe. I'm not sure the best solution for this, but it's something to note, especially if you're claustrophobic.
