Considered one of baseball's most-treasured landmarks. The field is the same used in the film Field of Dreams, nominated by the Academy Awards for Best Film of the Year of 1989. The film, based upon W.P. Kinsella's book Shoeless Joe, starred Kevin Costner and James Earl Jones. At the time of filming, the field straddled two farms, with most of the field owned by one family but left and center field owned by another. Both families opened up separate tourist attractions, causing much controversy for years. Eventually, they made peace, with the owners of left and center field selling their slice of the movie site to the other family. Various events, including baseball and softball games, take place on the field at various times during the year. Approximately 200 mi (322 km) NE of Des Moines via I-80 and US Hwy 20. About 500 feet (150 m) away on a separate property is a ballpark that Major League Baseball built in 2021 to host a regular-season game marketed as MLB at Field of Dreams. The 2021 game drew the highest TV ratings for any regular-season game in at least 15 years, leading MLB to make it an annual event. With that ballpark seating far fewer spectators than normal MLB parks, tickets for the 2021 game were sold via a lottery system open only to Iowa residents.
Hosts the Dubuque Symphony Orchestra, the Dubuque Fighting Saints professional hockey, and various touring theater productions.
