The 2024 Major League Soccer All-Star Game will be contested at Lower.com Field in Columbus, Ohio.
Columbus hosted MLS’ midsummer showcase event on two previous occasions (2000, 2005).
“We are pleased to award the 2024 MLS All-Star Game to Columbus, the third MLS All-Star Game for this terrific soccer city,” MLS commissioner Don Garber said Wednesday. “In just over three years, the Haslams (Dee and Jimmy, who own both the Crew and the NFL’s Cleveland Browns) and their partners have built one of the world’s best soccer stadiums, revitalized the club, and expanded the Crew fanbase. Columbus and Lower.com Field will be a tremendous host for the MLS All-Star Game and festivities.”
The MLS All-Stars will face Arsenal of the English Premier League in the 2023 All-Star Game on July 19 at Audi Field in Washington. An opponent has yet to be named for the 2024 event, however.
The Haslams said they already are looking forward to hosting the 2024 MLS All-Star Game.
“In everything we do, the Crew are dedicated to excellence on the pitch, creating engaging experiences and memories for our supporters and serving as leaders in the community, and hosting the 2024 MLS All-Star Game clearly accomplishes all of those goals,” the Haslams said in a statement. “The week-long celebration of soccer at all levels of play is an exceptional opportunity to showcase Lower.com Field, which provides one of the best atmospheres in all of sports and entertainment, the incredible hospitality and growth of the City of Columbus and our passionate fans.”
