MILWAUKEE – Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Christian Yelich and the Yelich family are proud to host their fourth annual “Home Plate” charity event, presented by American Family Insurance.

This year’s performance will be headlined by country star, Jake Owen, and an opening act by the former lead singer of The Fray! Milwaukee’s own, Charlie Berens, will be back as the host of the event along with a comedy performance!

Sponsors will enjoy elevated access to exclusive pre and post show receptions at The Trade Hotel, spotlighting a curated “Taste of Milwaukee” culinary experience led by Chef Adam Pawlak of Egg & Flour Pasta Bar—renowned for his appearances on Hell’s Kitchen Season 19 and Super Chef Grudge Match. The evening will showcase dishes from some of Milwaukee’s most celebrated restaurants, including: Egg & Flour Pasta Bar, Black Shoe Hospitality, Birch, Sanford, La Dama, Modern Maki, The Trade Hotel and Aggie’s Bakery.

“The Home Plate Concert gets bigger and more meaningful every year, and my family and I are incredibly grateful to bring everyone together again for a night that celebrates everything that makes Milwaukee so special. It means so much to see this community show up with such heart — from the fans to the local restaurants to our partners and friends. Watching music, sports, and the Milwaukee community unite for a great cause is something we look forward to year after year,” said Christian Yelich.

This years’ 2026 Home Plate Charity Event will benefit charitable organizations across the greater Milwaukee Area. In the years past, the Yelich’s have supported VISIT Milwaukee’s foundation which provides scholarships to local youth studying the hospitality industry at Milwaukee-area colleges and universities.
