Major League Baseball announced on Nov. 16 that Atlanta will host the 2025 All-Star game—four years after the league relocated the Midsummer Classic from the city over Georgia’s electoral reform law.

This will be the third time Atlanta will host the game, having previously done so in 1972 and 2000, but the first at the Braves’ current stadium, Truist Park, which opened in 2017.
