Hey now, we’re hosting the All-Stars, get your game on, go play. Austin’s own Q2 Stadium will host the 2025 MLS All-Star Game on Wednesday, July 23.
The game will pit a roster of 30 MLS players against 10 LIGA MX players in a battle of the leagues. Goalkeeper Brad Stuver will be the sole Austin FC All-Star and Vancouver Whitecaps FC will represent the highest headcount with four players. Notably, the roster also includes famed player Lionel Messi of Inter Miami CF.
