Major League Baseball Returns to Iowa with New Permanent Stadium in 2026
In a move that will surely excite baseball fans across the country, Major League Baseball has announced that they will be returning to Iowa in 2026 with a new permanent stadium. The iconic Field of Dreams stadium, made famous by the movie of the same name, was first built in Dyersville, Iowa back in 2021. Since then, it has hosted several memorable games, including a matchup between the Chicago White Sox and the New York Yankees in 2021.
However, the temporary stadium was dismantled in 2022 and the land was sold.

The news was first reported by Matt Gelb and Dan Hayes of The Athletic on Sunday.
The new stadium is expected to have a smaller capacity than the temporary one, which means tickets will be in high demand and likely not cheap. But with the game being nationally televised, fans in Iowa won’t have to worry about being blacked out. And with each team donning throwback uniforms, it’s sure to be a game no one will want to miss.
It’s only fitting that the Minnesota Twins will be the home team for this game, given their geographical location.

Once a date is announced, tickets will surely be among the most sought-after in the league. So mark your calendars and get ready for a game that will surely be one for the history books.
