The Chicago White Sox announced the 2026 lineup for their popular postgame concert series, and it's a hot one. Marshmello, Ja Rule and Cole Swindell will each perform after a Friday night home game this summer. Starting about 30 minutes after the final out, these concerts turn a regular ballgame into a full night out.
The series kicks off June 26, when masked EDM superstar Marshmello takes the stage after the Sox face the Kansas City Royals. Known for massive festival sets and chart-friendly collaborations, Marshmello has built one of the most recognizable brands in electronic music.
Ja Rule is next, taking over the ballpark on August 7 following the matchup with the Cleveland Guardians. One of the defining rap voices of the early 2000s, he'll bring a catalog packed with hits like “Always on Time” and “Livin’ It Up.”
Country hitmaker Cole Swindell closes out the series September 18 after the White Sox host the Detroit Tigers. His polished Nashville sound has kept him at the top of country radio for more than a decade.
All three games are scheduled for a 6:40pm first pitch, making it easy to turn the night into a double header of baseball and live music. The concerts are included with a standard game ticket, so fans can stay in their seats or move closer to the stage once the field is cleared.
For those who want a better view, the team is also selling limited on-field concert passes starting at $50, which include the game ticket and access to the field area during the show. Season ticket holders will have the option to add field passes through their account representatives while supplies last.
Postgame concerts have become one of the White Sox’s most reliable summer draws, and even on nights when the standings are unpredictable, the promise of live music keeps the ballpark buzzing long after the scoreboard goes dark.
