Dyersville location chosen for the news program’s “50 States in 50 Days”

ESPN’s flagship program SportsCenter will feature the Field of Dreams Movie Site as one of its locations as part of its “50 States in 50 Days” nationwide tour. The news and information program will record segments and broadcast live from the famous Dyersville, Iowa location on July 25.

This marks the first time in 20 years that SportsCenter has undertaken a cross-country tour of this scale. The original 2005 SportsCenter Across America effort inspired this modern revival — now reimagined for a digital-first audience and reflecting ESPN’s commitment to both physical and digital fan engagement ahead of the company’s direct-to-consumer launch later this year. The Field of Dreams played host to the Iowa segment during that original tour.

This year, SportsCenter will visit during one of the Movie Site’s youth baseball tournaments and will share details from the site, from its history to ongoing updates.

The Field of Dreams Movie Site was originally the primary filming location of the film “Field of Dreams” and has since played host to millions of visitors. The Site features house tours, hosts baseball tournaments, and overnight stays in the house. Food and beverages are offered in The Dugout pub, The Stretch concession stand, and an ice cream stand featuring Chocolate Shoppe Ice Cream.
