Batter Up, ATL!

It’s official: Atlanta is stepping up to the plate this summer. The 2025 MLB All-Star Game is coming to Truist Park on July 15, and Braves Country is gearing up for a celebration like no other.

This isn’t just a game—it’s a week-long celebration packed with baseball, food, music, and family fun. Whether you’re a lifelong Braves fan or just in it for the vibes, here’s a look at what’s happening during All-Star Week. 

Capital One All-Star Village (July 12–15)
The party kicks off at the Capital One All-Star Village at Cobb Galleria with 500,000 square feet of baseball fun. Think batting cages, VR home run derbies, MLB The Show gaming stations, and more. Kids can swing like the pros at Play Ball Park, while adults can snag autographs from Braves legends and chow down at the Mastercard Food Truck Row. Tickets are $35, but Capital One cardholders can grab free passes while supplies last.

HBCU Swingman Classic (July 11)
Celebrate the legacy of HBCU baseball as 50 student-athletes take the field at Truist Park for the HBCU Swingman Classic. It’s a showcase of talent and culture, curated in part by Ken Griffey Jr.

All-Star Saturday (July 12)
Catch the future of baseball in the All-Star Futures Game, managed by Braves icons Chipper Jones and Marquis Grissom. Stick around for the Celebrity Softball Game—expect laughs, big swings, and maybe a few surprise guests. You can find tickets for both events here, but hurry—they go fast!

MLB Draft (July 13)
Be there as the next generation of stars hears their names called during the MLB Draft. It’s a rare chance to see the beginning of baseball dreams unfold live. 

T-Mobile Home Run Derby (July 14)
 Eight sluggers. Three rounds. Countless moonshots. The Derby is always a fan favorite, and with Truist Park’s electric atmosphere, it’s bound to be unforgettable.

All-Star Red Carpet Show (July 15)
 Before the main event, watch the stars strut their stuff at The Battery. It’s a blend of fashion, flair, and fanfare.

All-Star Game (July 15)

And, of course, there’s the main event: the big game. See the best and the brightest from the American League (AL) and the National League (NL) go head-to-head in the 95th Midsummer Classic. 

Whether you’re a die-hard Braves fan or just looking for summer fun, All-Star Week promises unforgettable moments. So grab your cap, rally the crew, and be part of baseball history right here at home.

Atlanta’s got the home-field advantage—let’s make it unforgettable.
