Chicago Sky History
The Chicago Sky are an American professional basketball team in the Women's National Basketball Association (WNBA). The team played their first season in 2006, then qualified for their first postseason in 2013 before advancing to the Finals for the first time in 2014. Initially led by Sylvia Fowles, who won WNBA Defensive Player of the Year twice as a member of Chicago, the Sky experienced more success with 2015 MVP Elena Delle Donne and seven-time league assist leader Courtney Vandersloot. In 2021, the Chicago Sky won their first WNBA Championship with a squad featuring Vandersloot, Finals MVP Kahleah Copper and seven-time All-Star Candace Parker.

Chicago Sky at Wintrust Arena
The Wintrust Arena at McCormick Square, home of the Chicago Sky, is located in the Near South Side community in Chicago, Illinois. The 10,387-seat facility opened in 2017, though the Sky played their first full season at their new home court in 2018. The relocation marked a major change for the Chicago Sky, who previously played outside of their home city at Allstate Arena in Rosemont, Illinois. The Sky share Wintrust Arena with the DePaul University Blue Demons men’s and women’s basketball teams.

The game was awesome! It was great to see two top teams duke it out. The atmosphere is entertaining and you're right there in Chicago. Definitely a great time with your friends! I would recommend going to a game to any sports fan!
I had an amazing time at this home opener Sky Game! Not only were the player awesome but, the there was never a dull moment!! I went with my daughters 2 & 11yrs old and my mother in law, we all had a goodtime. You would have never had fun and interaction from the crowd like this at a Bulls game. We can't wait to go back.
I have to say that I haven't been the biggest WNBA fan, but I am now! I took my father and my uncle with me to the game. They are both in their late 70's, both retired public school administrators, and have always supported girls' athletics, so this was right up their alley. We had a great time at the game and watched some excellent basketball. The entertainment during the time-outs was fantastic. I highly recommend this event to anyone, with kids or with adults.
I really enjoyed the Fly Kids and the Flyers. I would prefer not to endure seeing children run to the floor for the Cha Cha slide. The Half Time show we saw was the fashion show. I could not understand who or where they are from. Maybe try choosing something to entertain both young and old.
Easy location to get to--UIC Pavillion. Ticket prices were reasonable. Parking admission seemed just a little steep. The venue was OK, announcer hard to understand, didn't like that the scoreboard was at the end of the arena. No one around us seemed to get the 1/2 time fashion show. The Fly kids entertainment was great during time outs and quarters. SKY Guy was fun to watch. It was go green night and the give aways were neat. All of the SKY staff members there were very friendly!
