Cubs attendance declines as team approaches mid-season

As of June 25, 2026, the Chicago Cubs average attendance is down this season, having sold 1,397,964 tickets over 40 home games, ranking sixth in MLB. The average per date is 34,949, placing them ninth in attendance figures. Contributing factors include a challenging early schedule with March home games and poor weather conditions in April and May. Anticipation is growing for upcoming matchups against the Cardinals, which may lead to sellout crowds. Additionally, a celebration of the 2016 World Series champions is planned for July 18, potentially increasing ticket demand.
