MLB’s All-Star Game represents the most impressive collection of talent on a major league field in any given season.
The best players of the American and National Leagues, elected by their managers, players, and fans, gather to play an exciting exhibition game year after year.
The 2023 edition was played at T-Mobile Park, the home of the Seattle Mariners, and saw the National League put an end to the American League’s nine-year winning streak.
Elias Diaz of the Colorado Rockies was selected as the MVP.
Moving on to next year, it has been already announced that the Midsummer Classic will be played at Globe Life Field, in Arlington Texas.
That’s the home of the reigning World Series champs, the Texas Rangers.
What about the 2025 edition? The venue was announced on Thursday by Commissioner Rob Manfred: the Atlanta Braves will host the event at Truist Park.
“Atlanta will host the 2025 MLB All-Star Game, commissioner Rob Manfred announced,” FOX Sports MLB tweeted.

The Braves, who were the best team in the regular season with 104 wins, hadn’t hosted the All-Star Game since 2000, back when they played at Turner Field.
25 years would have come and gone since the Braves finally hosted the game, two years from now.
The last time Atlanta hosted the game, the American League won and Derek Jeter, star shortstop of the New York Yankees, was crowned MVP.
The venue of the 2025 All-Star Game opened in 2017 as SunTrust Park, so it’s a relatively modern place for fans to sit back and enjoy the show.
