Washington is set to hold the summer exhibition for the first time since 2004.
MLS held the All-Star Game at RFK Stadium in 2002 and 2004. The league’s marquee game, MLS Cup, was staged at RFK three times before the format changed in 2012 to reward hosting rights to the higher seed.
The All-Star Game format has fluctuated throughout its history, starting in 1996 with an East vs. West match. Between 2005 and 2019, the MLS all-stars faced prominent visiting clubs, including Bayern Munich, Chelsea and Manchester United.Since canceling the 2020 game because of the pandemic, the league has turned to a clash between select squads from MLS and Liga MX, the Mexican top division. This year’s game will take place Aug. 10 at Allianz Field in St. Paul, Minn.
Last year’s showcase was held at Banc of California Stadium, home to Los Angeles FC, a 2018 expansion team that christened its venue that same season. The most recent All-Star Game in any sport to visit Washington was Major League Baseball’s in 2018 at Nationals Park.
