Morgan Wallen Chicago 2026: Set Times & Lineup

Soldier Field, a Saturday night in June, and Morgan Wallen on the marquee -- that is the kind of show Chicago circles on the calendar. But here is the part a lot of people miss: the night Wallen plays Chicago, June 20, 2026, the act going on right before him is Ella Langley. If you are an Ella Fella, this is your show. If you are a Wallen fan who has not caught Ella yet, consider this your formal heads-up to get there early.

The lineup, top to bottom

Here is the running order for the June 20 Soldier Field date:

• Morgan Wallen -- headliner
• Ella Langley -- direct support (the slot right before Wallen)
• Gavin Adcock
• Zach John King

Direct support is the prime opening slot. It means Ella goes on last among the openers, in the dark, to a stadium that is already full. That is a real set with a real production behind it -- not a warmup nobody watches. Gavin Adcock and Zach John King round out a strong, rowdy bill earlier in the evening.

What we actually know about set times

We are not going to invent exact set times, because for stadium shows they usually are not published until close to the date. Here is the honest version:

• The show is listed with doors around 4:00 PM and a show start around 5:30 PM.
• Openers run on a tight schedule once the show begins, each playing a condensed set before the next act.
• The venue typically releases the night-of running order closer to showtime, and gates for a stadium show generally open well ahead of the headliner.

Our rule of thumb: if you want to see Ella Langley, plan to be inside and in position by the listed show start time, not the headliner's stage time. The openers move fast.

The venue: Soldier Field

Soldier Field sits on the lakefront at 1410 Special Olympics Dr. It is an open-air stadium, so weather is part of the plan -- June in Chicago can swing from hot afternoon sun to a cool lake breeze after dark. Dress in layers you can carry. The stadium also runs a clear-bag policy like most NFL venues, so sort that out before you leave the house. Our best clear bags for concerts guide has the picks that actually pass the gate.

Getting tickets

The Chicago show page carries the "Get tickets" pointer. Click in, hit the button, and you are routed to the live listings for this exact date and venue, resale included. We do not sell tickets ourselves -- the show page sends you where the seats are.

One reminder: Wallen plays Soldier Field across the weekend, and the openers differ by night. Make sure you are buying for June 20 if you want the night Ella is on the bill.

Where to stay and how to get there

Soldier Field parking is limited and pricey on show nights, so a lot of Fellas use transit or rideshare and skip the lot entirely. If you are coming in from out of town, the Chicago show page has a Plan Your Trip section with hotel options near the venue. Our general guide to getting to the show -- parking and transit covers the rest.
