The MLB All-Star Game, also known as the Midsummer Classic, is typically held in mid-July. Until 2017, the winner of the MLB All-Star Game was awarded home-field advantage for the World Series, but this rule has since been scrapped. Despite its non-competitive nature, the MLB All-Star Game remains a premier event showcasing the finest baseball talent. Numerous events lead up to the main game.

How to plan for the MLB All-Star Game
For the best experience, plan for four days and three nights (arriving Sunday and departing Wednesday). This allows time to explore the All-Star Village, attend the Home Run Derby, and watch the MLB All-Star Game. If you wish to catch additional events like the Futures Game and Legends & Celebrity Softball Game, consider adding an extra night.
Advantages of an MLB All-Star Game Package
I always recommend booking a package for the MLB All-Star Game. Packages include accommodation and tickets, ensuring everything is taken care of seamlessly. Booking individually would require coordinating tickets and accommodation separately. Packages also offer options to add extra nights, upgrade rooms, include private transfers, and upgrade seats for an enhanced experience.
