The announcement by MLS Commissioner Don Garber reflected the City’s illustrious soccer history. “We’re delighted to grant Columbus the privilege of hosting the 2024 MLS All-Star Game, marking its third stint as the chosen city,” Garber said. “The Haslams, in partnership with other stakeholders, have magnificently transformed the city’s soccer landscape. Their efforts in building one of the world’s premier soccer stadiums and rejuvenating the club have been phenomenal. Lower.com Field stands as a testament and is poised to offer a grand setting for the All-Star Game and its auxiliary celebrations.”
Columbus, having been the venue for the league’s premier mid-summer event in 2000 and 2005, will witness the All-Star match and Skills Challenge at the Lower.com Field for the first time since its inauguration in 2021. Nestled within Downtown Columbus’ Astor Park development, this stadium has garnered international acclaim for its state-of-the-art amenities, including the recent 2023 addition of terrace decks and the dedicated Nordecke supporters’ section.
With the distinction of being home to the iconic “Dos a Cero,” Columbus proudly stands as the nation’s only major urban center boasting two contemporary, soccer-centric venues. The Historic Crew Stadium is another feather in its cap, being the pioneer of its kind in the country.
Dee and Jimmy Haslam, expressing their enthusiasm, noted, “Our commitment remains unwavering – excellence on the field, memorable fan experiences, and community leadership. Hosting the 2024 MLS All-Star Game encapsulates this vision perfectly.”
The duo further highlighted the unparalleled ambiance of Lower.com Field and its pivotal role in portraying the city’s expansive growth, its warm hospitality, and the unyielding spirit of its fans.
As we look forward to 2023, it’s noteworthy that December 2022 saw Wilfried Nancy take the reins as the Black & Gold’s eighth permanent head coach. Nancy, who will also oversee the team during the All-Star Game, has been a beacon of innovation and strategy. His first season has not only been exhilarating but has also seen him being shortlisted as a finalist for the 2022 Sigi Schmid MLS Coach of the Year Award.
