Late last year, the White Sox revealed a new name, format, and location for their once-annual fan convention. Touted now as “SoxFest Live,” the gathering will take place on Friday and Saturday, January 24-25 at the Ramova Theatre in Bridgeport. The event is scheduled to run from 5-9 p.m. CT on both evenings, with an hour-long after-party planned as well.
General admission tickets for Friday and Saturday are listed for $56, with a premium package labeled as the MVP Experience priced at $225, though sold out. The upgrade for those lucky fans who purchased provides early entry to view the White Sox Black Carpet welcoming attendees ahead of the event, access to a premium lounge area, photo opportunities, a private meet and greet session, light appetizers, and four lower-level tickets to a select 2025 White Sox home game.
Once the main event concludes, there will be also a SoxFest Live After Party immediately following the show on both days. The hour-long reception is available as an add-on to the above packages and will include food and drinks, activities, and games alongside White Sox VIPs.
