A multi-year partnership puts StubHub at the center of one of the WNBA’s most exciting fanbases and deepens the company’s commitment to women’s sports.
StubHub and the Chicago Sky are making it official. The two organizations announced a multi-year partnership, naming StubHub the Official Open Distribution Partner and Official Ticket Resale Marketplace of the Chicago Sky. For fans who have been navigating the secondary market on their own, that changes things in a real way. Chicago Sky StubHub tickets are now verified, protected, and available through an official channel backed by both organizations.
This is one of the more significant WNBA ticketing partnerships of the 2026 season, and it arrives at a moment when demand for women’s basketball has never been higher. Wintrust Arena has been loud. The Sky fanbase has grown. And getting into games — especially good ones — takes more than just showing up at the box office.
Why This Partnership Matters for Sky Fans
Finding Chicago Sky tickets has gotten more competitive. The 2026 WNBA season is drawing bigger crowds and more attention than any season before it, and the Sky are one of the teams leading that surge. That means more fans looking for tickets, more last-minute demand, and more people searching for where to get Chicago Sky tickets when the primary market dries up.
The StubHub partnership answers that directly. Through the partnership, Sky fans gain access to StubHub’s global marketplace and ticketing tools, expanding the ways they can find, buy, and attend games at Wintrust Arena. Whether that’s snagging a seat for an upcoming home game or listing tickets when your plans shift, the process now runs through a verified, official channel built directly into the Sky’s own ecosystem.
Chicago Sky resale tickets have always existed on the secondary market. What’s new is that the path to those tickets is now official, transparent, and backed by the protections StubHub brings to every transaction. That’s a meaningful upgrade for fans who want to buy with confidence and sellers who want to list without hassle.
What the Partnership Includes
This isn’t a logo placement deal. StubHub branding will feature throughout Wintrust Arena, including via digital floor logos, sponsorship placement through ads on the Sky website and mobile app, and a presence in Sky newsletters. The Chicago Sky’s broadcast presence will also be elevated by StubHub, which means fans watching at home will see the partnership reflected there too.
Beyond visibility, the operational piece is what drives real value for fans. StubHub’s marketplace infrastructure — its buyer protections, verified inventory, and seamless checkout — is now woven into how the Sky connect fans with tickets. That infrastructure has handled millions of transactions across hundreds of live event categories globally, and it’s now fully in service of getting more people into Wintrust Arena on game nights.
“StubHub is a particularly exciting partner for the Sky, offering fans greater flexibility and accessibility to attend Sky games,” said Alex Teodosi, Chicago Sky Vice President of Corporate Partnerships. “We are proud to partner with StubHub to streamline the fan experience and maximize their seating options, while exploring new collaborations across Skytown.”
“The Chicago Sky have built one of the most passionate fanbases in the WNBA,” said Manny Lorras, Global Head of Basketball and Hockey Partnerships at StubHub. “We’re now able to give those fans more ways to get to games, and StubHub gets a front-row seat to one of the most exciting teams in women’s basketball.”
How to Buy Chicago Sky Tickets on StubHub
For fans wondering how to buy WNBA tickets through the new partnership, the process is straightforward. StubHub’s marketplace surfaces verified resale inventory with full seat details, section maps, and pricing transparency. You can browse by game, filter by price range or section, and check out with StubHub’s buyer protections applied automatically.
Here’s what the experience looks like in practice:
Head to StubHub and search Chicago Sky tickets, or navigate directly through the Sky’s official website. From there, you’ll see available inventory organized by game date, with pricing displayed upfront — no hidden fees revealed at the last step. Each listing shows the section, row, and number of tickets available together, so you can find the right configuration for your group.
Once you’ve selected your seats, StubHub’s FanProtect Guarantee covers your purchase. If something goes wrong with your order — wrong seats, invalid tickets, a last-minute issue — StubHub makes it right. That guarantee applies to every Chicago Sky StubHub transaction, whether you’re buying courtside or finding the best value in the upper bowl.
For sellers, listing Chicago Sky resale tickets through StubHub is equally direct. Set your price, confirm your seat details, and your listing goes live in a verified marketplace that Sky fans are actively browsing. When your tickets sell, StubHub handles the transfer and payment. The Sky’s official partnership means buyers looking for legitimate resale inventory know exactly where to look.
StubHub’s Commitment to Women’s Sports
This partnership sits inside a much broader strategy. HerSportsHub, StubHub’s dedicated platform for women’s sports, spotlights live events through real-time ticket availability and audience data, giving fans a direct path to the moments that matter. The Chicago Sky deal accelerates that work, pairing one of the WNBA’s most storied franchises with a platform purpose-built to grow women’s sports audiences.
The timing reflects where the WNBA is right now. StubHub WNBA Chicago is a natural fit for a company that has been investing in women’s sports infrastructure at the platform level — not just writing sponsorship checks, but building the tools that make it easier for fans to show up. HerSportsHub is the clearest expression of that commitment, and the Sky partnership gives it one of the league’s most passionate fanbases to work with.
The Sky’s busy free agency period, paired with StubHub’s community and women’s sports investments, helps fans get more access to tickets and grow the fanbase across a season that runs May through September. Every home game at Wintrust Arena is an opportunity, and the partnership is designed to make sure more of those opportunities reach fans who want them.
About the Chicago Sky
The 2021 WNBA Champion Chicago Sky are one of the league’s most celebrated franchises. Founded in 2005, the Sky were the first independently owned women’s professional basketball team to join the WNBA. They play their home games at Wintrust Arena in Chicago, and their alumni roster reads like a hall of fame ballot — Swin Cash, Sylvia Fowles, Candace Parker, and Elena Delle Donne have all been inducted into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame, with Parker and Delle Donne earning that honor in 2026.
The Sky have made two appearances in the WNBA Finals and brought home the championship in 2021. With a fanbase that has grown alongside the broader surge in women’s basketball, the Sky head into the 2026 season as one of the league’s marquee draws — and one of the most compelling reasons to be at Wintrust Arena this summer.
