Soldier Field's 2023 Summer Concert Lineup

Soldier Field’s lakefront location, distinctive columns, and unmatched views of the Chicago skyline provide a memorable backdrop for musical performances. With a capacity of up to 61,500 people, the stadium has hosted many high-profile concerts over the years, including U2, The Rolling Stones, Elton John, and Paul McCartney.

While some concertgoers have criticized the acoustics due to the stadium's open-air design, the energy of the crowd and the excitement of the performance more than make up for it. Even with a large capacity, the stadium still somehow manages to feel intimate.

Soldier Field is set to host to a bevy of top performers and major shows this summer:
