Chicago's Soldier Field unveiled as location for 2017 MLS All-Star Game

See you in the Windy City, All-Stars.

Major League Soccer announced Tuesday that the 2017 MLS All-Star Game presented by Target will be played on Aug. 2 at Chicago's Soldier Field.

MLS Commissioner Don Garber was joined by Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel and Chicago Fire owner and chairman Andrew Hauptman at Soldier Field to make the announcement, along with Michael Kelly (general superintendent and CEO of the Chicago Park District), Kara Bachman (executive director of the Chicago Sports Commission) and William White (vice president of marketing for Target).

The game — which will be broadcast live on FS1, UniMás and UDN in the United States, TSN and TVA Sports in Canada, and in more than 170 countries around the world — will be sponsored by Target for the first time since the retailer became an official partner with MLS earlier this month.
