The NBA has confirmed that Phoenix will host the NBA All-Star 2027, one of the most prominent events on the league's annual calendar.
The All-Star Weekend will take place at Footprint Center, home of the Phoenix Suns, and will bring together throughout the weekend the All-Star Game alongside other traditional events on the program, including the Rising Stars and Saturday's skills competitions.
It will be the third time Phoenix has served as host city for an NBA All-Star, having previously done so in 1995 and 2009. The league has not yet detailed the exact schedule for the event, which will take place, as is tradition, in February.
