One of my favorite days at Wrigley Field each season is #CubsSocial Media night. If you haven’t been before and you’ll be in town on Monday, September 16, mark your calendars now. Here’s everything you need to know to be part of this year’s festivities.

Every year is a little bit different, so I’m excited to see what the Cubs have in store for 2019. Previous year’s events have included raffles, scavenger hunts, and there is always awesome conversation with your favorite local bloggers and Cubs Twitterati. Here are the details for 2019, sign up soon! Spaces go fast:
To register for Social Media Night you need to already have a ticket to the September 16 game between the Cubs and the Reds. I recommend getting a bleacher seat because there is always a group of us sitting together in the bleachers, but really any seat for that game will get you in. Here’s a shot Bleacher Nation took of our group in the bleachers last year.
Yes, I’m in the background poring over my scorecard while everyone else hams it up for the camera. I am always 100% that girl.

Once you’ve got a ticket, register here. You’ll notice there are some clues about what this year’s festivities include, like a T-shirt for the event. I’m personally pretty stoked to see what they plan to do with this walk-up song information. I won’t bore you with the details of how much time I’ve devoted to that particular detail over the years (it’s a lot).
This is the sweet shirt 2018 participants received.
Had a lovely time at #CubsSocial and I got this sweet shirt! A shoutout to the @Cubs team that consistently does brilliant work. pic.twitter.com/53yvESgqCI

In all seriousness, the prizes are great. Some of the largest giveaways from past years have included throwing out the first pitch at the game and Cubs Convention passes. I might have won the latter in 2017:
Stick with #AtCubs. You'll go places.
