MLB All-Star Game 2021: Coors Field hosts the Midsummer Classic

The Rockies will play host to the MLB’s biggest stars for the first time since 1998

Contributors: Purple Row Staff

The 2021 MLB All-Star Game is coming to LoDo! The Rockies will play host to MLB’s biggest stars at Coors Field on Tuesday, July 13 at 6pm MT on FOX and FoxSports GO.

This will be the 91st All-Star Game in MLB history, and the first since 2019 after the 2020 game was cancelled due to the coronavirus. The Rockies were in the process of bidding for the game in 2023 or later, so when MLB chose to move the game from Atlanta Cobb County, Georgia, Denver was an obvious fit. The Rockies previously hosted the 1998 All-Star Game, featuring home run derby champion Ken Griffey Jr and a slew of future Hall of Famers, including All-Star Game MVP Roberto Alomar.

It’s not just the All-Star Game coming to town, though. Sunday, July 11 will feature the Futures Game and the Celebrity Softball Game. The home run derby—with the updated format!—will occur Monday, July 12.
