We are underway, enjoy an amazing week of all things baseball!
The first time I attended an All-Star Game was 2004 in Houston. It took just one visit to all things ASG to get hooked.
I'm sharing my experiences attending ASG weeks so you can maximize your visit to the current year's host city.
Congrats to Atlanta, Buckhead, The Battery, Cobb Galleria and the Braves for an AMAZING 2025!! To have the ASW festivities in one's backyard and likely the last time in my lifetime, it was a blessing. Maybe having the game obtusely stolen in 2021 was a blessing, as ATL was in full power and well prepared, quite unlike Denver was.
Now we prepare for 2026! I've never attended a game at Citizens Bank Park, nor have I ever visited Philadelphia. But looking forward to knocking another stadium off the punchlist!
It's ok to wait to the last minute if you don't get a ticket strip. SeatGeek (I have NO affiliation) currently has tickets on sale. But remember, folks who panic they won't resell their "extra" tickets may drop the price in the days up to and including day of the event. MLB is taking registration for the lottery, https://www.mlb.com/all-star/tickets/ticket-strip-purchase-opportunity to get face value ticket strips.

It's used to be an unpaid gig and was priceless. In 2022, Los Angeles made this a paid position, and the same is the case for Atlanta in 2025!
This is your chance to go behind the scenes of MLB as a member of the All-Star Experience Team.
2025 will be my 8th year, learn more about the program by clicking below:

The last 5K prior to Atlanta's 4.4 Miler to honor Hank Aaron was Cleveland in 2019. We will see if Philly can be up for the challenge.
You've got questions? Tickets? Events? Bag Policy? No problem! Official info from the source:
If you can find time in between the plethora of MLB events, Host Cities and stores, restaurants and facilities host their own events featuring local flavors.
Be sure to check with local media sites for more info.

Most businesses in the vicinity of the ASG get into the spirit of a big event like the ASG. In this case, an unidentified worker at the MLB Staff Hotel puts up signage inside the hotel lobby.

Once the official events by MLB are over for the day, the host city allows visitors and residents alike to immerse themselves into local events. Here, The Kansas City Power & Light District hosted nightly concerts and clubs events.

There are so many events and activities in which to partake, you'll definitely get exercise during ASG Week. But there's nothing like a 5K Run or Walk to see more of the host city. Nice souvenir to have a 5K Shirt and medal (if applicable) to commemorate your visit.
