Chicago Fire FC has announced changes to its remaining home match schedule. The club's home game against LAFC, originally set for August 9 at Soldier Field, will now be played at SeatGeek Stadium in Bridgeview, Illinois. This change is due to a scheduling conflict with the Chicago Bears' preseason games. According to the lease agreement with Soldier Field, Chicago Fire FC cannot host matches within five days of a Bears’ home game. The Bears have a preseason game scheduled for August 10.
The match on August 9 against LAFC joins two other previously relocated games – August 16 against St. Louis CITY SC and September 6 against New England Revolution – all moved to SeatGeek Stadium due to conflicts at Soldier Field. Ticket sales for these matches are currently paused and will resume on June 20.

In addition to venue updates, Chicago Fire FC also announced theme night schedules. Hispanic Heritage Night is set for September 27 during the match against Columbus Crew, while Fan Appreciation Night will occur on October 4 against Toronto FC, both presented by Zayed Law. Harry Potter Night, initially planned earlier in the season and presented by Magellan Corporation, has been rescheduled for September 13 when the team faces NYCFC.

Currently, Chicago Fire FC is concluding a five-game East Coast road trip with an upcoming regular season rematch against D.C. United at Audi Field in Washington D.C., scheduled for June 7 at 6:30 p.m. CT. The game will be broadcast globally via MLS Season Pass on Apple TV and locally on wlsam.com (English) and Que Buena 105.1 through the Uforia app (Spanish).
