WNBA Taps Golden State to Host 2027 All-Star Game
Chicago hosted the event this year, when it was the lone bidder.
The WNBA has announced that the Golden State Valkyries will host the 2027 WNBA All-Star Weekend on July 30-31 at the Chase Center in San Francisco. This marks the first time the 2025 expansion team will take the stage in midseason showcase. WNBA commissioner Cathy Engelbert praised the Valkyries for bringing "incredible energy and excitement" to the league.
The announcement came much earlier than previous years, with Chicago being named host just a week after the end of the 2025 WNBA Finals. The Valkyries' owner, Joe Lacob, expressed excitement about hosting the event, stating it was a "full circle moment" given the team's strong performance and shared ownership with the NBA's Golden State Warriors.
