The 1989 movie Field of Dreams was filmed at a farm near Dyersville. The facility, now named for the movie, hosted the Major League Baseball game between the Chicago White Sox and the New York Yankees (broadcast live as MLB at Field of Dreams) on August 12, 2021. It had originally been scheduled for the previous year but was postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
