Teams hosting future MLB All-Star Games
2027 MLB All-Star Game
Commissioner Rob Manfred awarded the 2027 MLB All-Star Game to the Chicago Cubs, who will host the annual event and accompanying festivities at Wrigley Field.
It’s going to mark a fourth time the Cubs have hosted an All-Star Game in franchise history, all of which have been at Wrigley Field, with the first being held in 1947. They additionally hosted in 1962 and 1990, with the 1962 exhibition being the second of two All-Star Games played that season.
Wrigley Field is becoming the third ballpark in MLB history to host an All-Star Game four times, joining Municipal Stadium and old Yankee Stadium.
Overall, 2027 is going to mark an eighth MLB All-Star Game hosted by the city of Chicago, which is one shy of tying New York for the most by one city.
The 2027 All-Star Game will be played on Tuesday, July 13. It will be MLB’s 97th Midsummer Classic.
2028 MLB All-Star Game
The San Francisco Giants were named the hosts of the 2028 MLB All-Star Game, which doesn’t have a scheduled date but is expected to be held in coordination with allowing players to participate in the Los Angeles Summer Olympics.
It’s going to mark the second All-Star Game ever held at Oracle Park, adding to when the Giants hosted in 2007. The Giants hosted the first All-Star Game of the 1961 season at Candlestick Park, and that’s also where the event was played in 1984.
Oracle Park is becoming the eighth active ballpark to host the Midsummer Classic multiple times, joining Fenway Park (1946, 1961, 1999), Wrigley Field (1947, 1962, 1990), Angel Stadium (1967, 1989, 2010), Dodger Stadium (1980, 2022); Progressive Field (1997, 2019), Coors Field (1998, 2021) and T-Mobile Park (2001, 2023).
2029 MLB All-Star Game
Locations for the MLB All-Star Game 2029 and beyond have not yet been set. However, comments by Manfred and reports suggest the Toronto Blue Jays and Baltimore Orioles are due to host in the near future. There’s a growing sentiment the Orioles will be awarded the 2029 All-Star Game.
Though, there was initial belief that the Blue Jays would likely host the 2028 MLB All-Star Game before that gave way to the Giants and Oracle Park due to the Los Angeles Olympics.
Manfred’s final two All-Star Games as MLB commissioner are expected to be 2027 and 2028.
