The 2026 WNBA All-Star Game will be contested in Chicago, the league announced on Thursday.

The 3-point contest and skills competition will take place at Wintrust Arena on July 24. The All-Star Game itself will be played at the United Center the following night.

“The (All-Star Game festivities) will undoubtedly deliver unforgettable competition and community outreach,” WNBA commissioner Cathy Engelbert said in a release. “Together with the Chicago Sky, we look forward to celebrating the game’s brightest stars, engaging WNBA fans around the world, and showcasing the energy of one of basketball’s most iconic cities.”

The Windy City previously hosted the event in 2022, with Team Wilson recording a 134-112 victory over Team Stewart at Wintrust Arena. Team Wilson’s Kelsey Plum led all scorers with 30 points and earned WNBA All-Star Game MVP honors.
