SoxFest 2026 is once again returning to the Ramova Theatre in Chicago, and the White Sox have released their first wave of scheduled player, prospect, and front office appearances for the two-day event.
While this won’t necessarily be the final, exhaustive list, here are the names we know so far:
Current Players: RHP Davis Martin, INF Chase Meidroth, INF Colson Montgomery, OF Luis Robert Jr, RHP Shane Smith, RHP Grant Taylor, C Kyle Teel, INF Miguel Vargas
Prospects: INF Sam Antonacci, RHP Tanner McDougal
Front Office: GM Chris Getz, Manager Will Venable
Additional details surrounding player and VIP attendees, as well as a live programming schedule, will be announced in the coming weeks, per the White Sox. As for now, the youth movement is on full display both on and off the field, with Robert Jr the longest-tenured White Sox player to be announced to attend the event despite the constant sea of trade rumors surrounding his name for what feels like the better part of two years at this point.
As for the event itself, tickets are on sale now, with several different packages available. New to the two-day celebration is the organization’s annual, season ticket holder-exclusive Winter with the White Sox event, which will take over the first night of SoxFest Live.
