The official logo of the 2020 MLB All-Star Game celebrates the golden age of Hollywood. Within the logo, the words ‘All-Star Game’ appear epic as in a dynamic film scroll. The golden logo is contained in the signature hexagon shape found throughout Dodger Stadium. The Club’s iconic Dodger Blue creates the logo’s dimension, while the star features a splash of red reminiscent of the Dodgers’ classic jerseys. Stylistically these icons and colors create a unique Los Angeles theme to MLB’s Midsummer Classic.

Baseball Commissioner Robert D. Manfred Jr. said: “Major League Baseball is thrilled to bring the All-Star Game back to Dodger Stadium, one of our game’s marquee ballparks. With the combination of two consecutive World Series appearances, continued success on the field and the anticipation of our 2020 Midsummer Classic, this is a great time to be Dodger fan.

We’re looking forward to showing off these fan-friendly enhancements next year.”

Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti said: “Hosting the All-Star Game in 2020 will add to an extraordinary legacy of elite competition in our City of Angels.
