Get Ready for WNBA All-Star 2024 in Phoenix: July 18-20, 2024 As summer heats up in Arizona, so does the excitement for WNBA All-Star 2024, a premier event in women’s basketball that promises to be an unforgettable experience for sports enthusiasts and the local community alike. Hosted in Phoenix for the third time, WNBA All-Star 2024 is scheduled to take place from July 18-20 in a weekend that brings together the league’s top talent for a series of thrilling events, games, and celebrations that highlight the best in women’s basketball.

The centerpiece of the weekend will be the All-Star Game on July 20 at the Footprint Center, home of the Phoenix Mercury. Fans can look forward to a spectacular display of athleticism and skill as the league’s brightest stars take the court. Because the 2024 Summer Olympics will take place in late July, the WNBA has announced that the 2024 WNBA All-Star Game will feature a matchup between the WNBA All-Stars who comprise the USA Basketball Women’s National Team versus the remaining WNBA All-Stars.

Events and Activities Beyond the All-Star Game itself, the weekend is packed with a variety of events that cater to all ages and interests. Festivities kick off on July 18 with a special WNBA Cares Community Day, where players and fans come together to give back to the community through volunteer efforts and service projects. This day of action embodies the WNBA’s commitment to positive social impact and community engagement.

On July 19, the skills competitions take center stage, featuring the popular Three-Point Contest and Skills Challenge. These events showcase the incredible talents of WNBA players in a fun and engaging format, allowing fans to see their favorite athletes up close in a more relaxed and interactive setting.

As part of the full slate of activities, the Phoenix Convention Center will hold WNBA Live, a two-day fan festival from July 19-20 that celebrates the intersection of the WNBA, fashion, music and culture.
