Defending WNBA Champion, Las Vegas Aces, will be hosting this year’s WNBA All-Star Game, presented by AT&T, on July 15th. This marks the third time Las Vegas will host the WNBA’s midseason showcase. In addition to the AT&T WNBA All-Star game, the WNBA is also looking to host its “WNBA Live” fan festival, now in its second year. The festival provides fans the opportunity to experience the intersection of the WNBA, entertainment, and culture leading up to the AT&T WNBA All-Star Game.
“The WNBA is thrilled to bring AT&T WNBA All-Star, to Las Vegas, a city that showed such incredible support for the Aces and the WNBA throughout last season, especially during the WNBA Finals presented by YouTube TV,” said WNBA Commissioner, Cathy Engelbert.
“This will be the third AT&T WNBA All-Star Game to take place in Las Vegas, where we had memorable experiences in 2019 and 2021. And I can’t think of a better location for us to host our second annual “WNBA Live” interactive fan event that will give WNBA fans two days of incredible opportunities to engage with our brand and partners who have stepped up to support the WNBA.”
To kick-start the weekend of festivities, some of the League’s biggest and brightest stars will display their talents at the 2023 edition of the WNBA 3-Point Contest, in partnership with PepsiCo and WNBA Skills Challenge.
“We’re excited to once again host the league’s signature showcase event in the sports and entertainment capital of the world,” said Aces president Nikki Fargas. “Las Vegas has showed up and showed out for the Aces and the WNBA since our first season, and we are looking forward to welcoming fans from around the world back to Michelob ULTRA Arena for another incredible celebration of the best that women’s basketball has to offer.”
