Minnesota Vikings vs Chicago Bears Tickets
The Minnesota Vikings and Chicago Bears meet twice during the 2026 regular season. Minnesota travels to Soldier Field in Week 2 before Chicago visits U.S. Bank Stadium in Week 18.

No behaviour, fields or ranking rules were described for either one, so neither has been built. The city switch below is the part of the selector that was specified.

Game-day plans by city
Selecting a city in the switch above brings that city's plan to the front. Both plans are written out in full below and both remain readable if the switch is unavailable.
Both city plans are open. Chicago is first, Minneapolis follows.
Chicago · Soldier Field · Week 2
Chicago game-day plan
A clock running backwards from kickoff.
Check the mobile ticket, charge the phone and review the latest stadium entry information.
Begin travelling toward the stadium area. Traffic and public transport can become busier as kickoff approaches.
Arrive near Soldier Field, confirm the correct gate and allow time for security screening.
Enter the stadium, locate the section and resolve any ticket problem before the game begins.
Sunday, September 20 at 12:00 p.m. CDT.
Exact gate-opening times are not published here because they have not been confirmed for this game.
Weather note for this city
The Week 2 game is outdoors. Conditions may range from warm and sunny to cool, wet or windy. Check the forecast on game morning.
Minneapolis · U.S. Bank Stadium · Week 18
Minneapolis game-day plan
A weather-to-seat route rather than a clock, because the kickoff time has not been announced.
Confirm the final Week 18 date and kickoff time. Check the ticket, transport updates and winter weather.
Allow extra travel time when snow, ice or a major event affects roads and trains.
Use the gate shown or recommended for the ticket location. Complete security screening before heading to the seating level.
Check section, row and seat numbers before moving away from the concourse.
No specific train schedule, parking price or gate time is claimed here, because no current source for them was supplied.
Weather note for this city
The game is played inside U.S. Bank Stadium, but travel and entry happen during winter. Clothing and transport planning should account for conditions outside the building.
Choose your game
Follow the route that matches the trip you are actually making.
I am travelling to Chicago
Choose this route for the Week 2 game at Soldier Field.
Best for:
- Fans planning an early-season trip
- Visitors who prefer an outdoor stadium
- Supporters combining the game with time in central Chicago
- Buyers who already have transport and accommodation arranged
Before buying:
Copy missing The “Before buying” list for this route was cut off in the source copy after its opening words and no complete bullet survived. Nothing has been written in to replace it. The checks in Ticket safety check apply to this route in the meantime.
The second route
Copy missing This section is a route decision, so a second route — the one for supporters travelling to Minneapolis for the Week 18 game — belongs here with its own “Best for” and “Before buying” lists. That copy never arrived and has not been invented. Until it is supplied, use the Minneapolis game-day plan above and the ticket safety check below.
Understanding ticket prices
This section explains why ticket prices move. It does not quote any figure, because no listing, price, range or marketplace has been supplied for either game.
Lower sideHigher side
Illustration only This dial shows direction and factors. It carries no number, no scale and no forecast, and it is not tied to any listing.
Demand can change because of:
Copy missing The list of demand factors was cut off after this first item, mid-word on the second. The remaining factors have not been guessed at. Only the one factor that arrived in full is published.
[ Heading pending ]
Heading missing The heading for the list below never arrived, and neither did its opening items. No wording has been invented for it, so the heading above is left as a marked placeholder until the real one is supplied. The three bullets that follow are exactly as supplied, and one further fragment that arrived incomplete has been dropped rather than completed.
- Travel depends on having confirmed tickets.
- Accessible seating arrangements must be made.
- The game is expected to affect the division race.
Waiting may provide more listings when:
- The buyer is flexible about location.
- Only one or two seats are needed.
- Travel is already arranged.
- The buyer accepts the risk of rising prices or reduced choice.
Not yet supplied No ticket listings, prices, price ranges, seating tiers or marketplaces have been supplied for either game, so none are published. Alongside each price, this page is required to store the source URL and the time it was last checked, and to show mandatory fees or label them as unknown — none of that can be shown until real listings with real sources arrive. Expired listings will be removed automatically once a listing feed exists.
Ticket safety check
Eight checks. Tick each one as you complete it. A completed check is marked with the word “Done” and a tick, not by colour alone.
Accessible seating
Both venues provide accessible seating and related services, but availability and purchasing procedures must be checked with the stadium or authorised ticket provider.
A resale listing should not be assumed to include every accessibility feature. Contact the venue when seating location, companion space, mobility assistance or another accommodation is required.
Soldier Field accessibility information Link pending No destination was supplied for this button, so it is shown as plain text rather than as a link that goes nowhere. Contact Soldier Field or the official ticket provider directly until the correct address is added here.
U.S. Bank Stadium accessibility information Link pending No destination was supplied for this button either. The site's own U.S. Bank Stadium guide covers accessibility for Vikings home games in the meantime, but it is not a substitute for the venue's official accessible-seating contact.
Weather difference
Both panels stay side by side, because the contrast between the two trips is the point.
Chicago in September
The Week 2 game is outdoors. Conditions may range from warm and sunny to cool, wet or windy. Check the forecast on game morning.
Minneapolis in Week 18
The game is played inside U.S. Bank Stadium, but travel and entry happen during winter. Clothing and transport planning should account for conditions outside the building.

Delivery methods depend on the team and platform. Follow the instructions attached to the purchased ticket.

Final purchase panel
A checklist you fill in for yourself. Nothing here places an order, nothing is submitted, and no payment or personal details are asked for or accepted.
Not yet supplied No seating areas, tiers or sections were supplied for either stadium, so there is nothing honest to offer in this menu. Section names have deliberately not been invented. Write the preferred area down separately and confirm it against the venue's own map.
Destination pending The brief ends with a “Continue to verified tickets” button, but no address was supplied for it. Rather than a button that goes nowhere, the step is written out here: go to the official ticket links on the official Minnesota Vikings schedule, and compare the complete price and buyer terms there before ordering.
The most important choice comes before the seat comparison. Select the correct city, venue and game date first.
After that, compare the total cost, confirm that the seats are together and review how the tickets will be delivered. For the Week 18 meeting in Minneapolis, check the final date and kickoff time again before making travel arrangements.
