The 2024 Major League Soccer All-Star Game is the upcoming 28th annual Major League Soccer All-Star Game, an exhibition soccer match in the United States. It will feature all-star squads from Major League Soccer (MLS) and Liga MX of Mexico—the third edition to use the inter-league format. The All-Star Game will be played on July 24, 2024, at Lower.com Field in Columbus, Ohio.
Background
On June 28, 2023, MLS announced that the 2024 MLS All-Star Game would be hosted by the Columbus Crew and played at their home stadium, Lower.com Field in Columbus, Ohio. The 2005 MLS All-Star Game was hosted by the Crew at their previous stadium.[1] The Liga MX All-Stars, representing the top flight league of Mexico, were announced as the 2024 All-Star Game opponents on March 4, 2024. It is the third MLS All-Star Game to feature an inter-league all-star team; the Liga MX All-Stars had previously played in the 2021 and 2022 editions before MLS switched back to a friendly against a European club for the 2023 game.[2]
Pre-match
Roster selection
The MLS All-Star team's 30 players were determined by sixteen selections by host head coach Wilfried Nancy of the Columbus Crew, two player selected by MLS commissioner Don Garber, and twelve selections from an online vote of fans, media personnel, and MLS players.[3] The online vote for players in a 4–1–2–3 formation and one additional slot began on May 29, 2024, and concluded on June 10. The list of eligible players was created on May 13 and comprised players who had appeared in at least 50 percent of their club's matches at the time.[4] Garber selected Houston Dynamo FC midfielder Héctor Herrera and Columbus midfielder Darlington Nagbe.[3]
Broadcasting
The All-Star Game and Skills Challenge will be broadcast globally in English, French, and Spanish on MLS Season Pass, an online streaming platform operated by Apple TV with rights to all MLS matches.[4]
Squads
MLS All-Stars
The MLS All-Stars roster was announced on July 1, 2024.[3] Players from 18 clubs were selected; the most-represented teams on the roster are the Columbus Crew with five players and Inter Miami CF with four players who are all making their All-Star Game debut.[3][5]
Note: Flags indicate national team as defined under FIFA eligibility rules. Players may hold more than one non-FIFA nationality.
