The Atlanta Braves will host the 2025 MLB All-Star Game at Truist Park, their home stadium that opened in 2017.
The MLB All-Star Game was supposed to be held in Atlanta in 2021, but the league announced in April of that year that it was moving the game to Coors Field in Denver in response to Georgia voting rules signed into law that were condemned for being too restrictive.
MLB announced in November 2023 that Atlanta would host the 2025 edition. It will mark the city's third MLB All-Star Game (1972 and 2000).
2026: Citizens Bank Park, Philadelphia Phillies
MLB will celebrate the 250th anniversary of American independence by holding the 2026 All-Star Game in Philadelphia.
The league made a similar decision in 1976, as it held its Midsummer Classic in Philadelphia 200 years after the Declaration of Independence was signed in the city.
The 2026 event at the Philadelphia Phillies' Citizens Bank Park will be the fifth MLB All-Star Game in the City of Brotherly Love (1943, 1952, 1976 and 1996).
2027 and beyond
MLB has not announced any future All-Star Game locations past 2026.
