“Coming off of record setting 2023 season we felt the need more than ever to continue investing in the first class experience we strive to provide at Wintrust Field,” said Schaumburg Boomers owner, Patrick A Salvi.  “In partnership with the Village of Schaumburg, there is no part of Wintrust Field that isn’t being invested in ahead of 2024 Opening Day, I cannot wait to for Boomers Fans to see the upgrades and enhanced amenities.” 

The Boomers have had substantial attendance increases each season since 2018, had the four highest single game attendances in franchise history all in 2023, the highest overall attendance in franchise history, and finished 2023 as the third highest attendance in all of the four MLB Partner Leagues.  

The improvements made this offseason are a combination of efforts between Boomers’ ownership and the stadium owners, the Village of Schaumburg.  Besides being home to the Schaumburg Boomers, Wintrust Field is host to many events including IHSA Super sectionals, Dominican University Baseball, Oakton College Baseball, youth tournaments and showcases, and non-baseball events such as Ballpark Brewfest, School District 54 Graduations, Garba, charity softball games, and more.
