Cubs vs. White Sox Spring Training Game - SOLD OUT
Sunday, March 1
Join your fellow Huskies for one of our most popular annual traditions—Spring Training at Sloan Park. Enjoy the excitement of watching the 2026 Chicago Cubs and the Chicago White Sox battle it out from the First Base Party Deck, a covered venue that offers shade, comfort, and an unbeatable, unobstructed view of the field.
Your ticket includes access to the semi-private event space, a full lunch buffet, and one drink ticket redeemable for beer, wine or non-alcoholic beverages. The buffet and bar open one hour before the first pitch. The lunch buffet will remain open until 2:30 p.m., and the bar will remain available through the seventh inning, giving you plenty of time to eat, sip and socialize with fellow NIU alumni and friends.
Space is limited, and this event sells out every year—secure your spot and join us for a sunny day of baseball, great food and Huskie pride!
