The Chicago Fire have officially partnered with McDonald's, announcing that their new $750 million stadium, set to open in 2028, will be named McDonald's Park. This partnership marks a significant milestone as it is McDonald's first-ever naming rights deal with a major U.S. professional sports stadium.

McDonald's Park will accommodate over 22,000 fans for soccer matches and can expand to 31,000 for concerts and special events.

Joe Mansueto, owner and chairman of Chicago Fire, expressed enthusiasm about the partnership, stating, "As we take the next step on our journey to build a world-class club, our commitment to Chicago is at the center of everything we do. That’s why McDonald's is the perfect partner — an iconic global brand with deep Chicago roots and shared values in supporting our community. McDonald's Park will be the stadium that Chicago deserves."

Founded in 1997, the Chicago Fire currently plays at Soldier Field. The team has a rich history, having won the U.S. Open Cup four times, although their last triumph came in 2006. They also have one MLS Cup victory and a Supporters’ Shield from 2003.

Managed by former U.S. head coach Gregg Berhalter, the Fire have had a promising start to the 2026 season, earning 17 points in their first 11 games with five wins, two draws, and four losses. They currently sit fourth in the Eastern Conference, trailing Nashville, New England Revolution, and Lionel Messi’s Inter Miami.

The Chicago Fire will return to action on Wednesday night, facing D.C. United, followed by a match against CF Montreal on Saturday.
