WNBA All-Star Weekend Ready to Shine in Indianapolis with Panache and Panini

The city of Indianapolis is about to become the center of the basketball universe as the WNBA’s brightest stars, most passionate fans, and leading cultural influencers converge on Gainbridge Fieldhouse and the Indiana Convention Center for AT&T WNBA All-Star 2025 Weekend.

This year’s All-Star festivities, running July 18–19, are poised to be the most dynamic yet, featuring not only the game’s top talent but also a full slate of fan-centric experiences, blending hoops, fashion, music, and culture into one unforgettable celebration.

At the heart of the action is WNBA Live presented by Panini, the two-day fan festival hosted at the Indiana Convention Center, just steps from the Fieldhouse. The festival runs 10 a.m.–7 p.m. both days and is packed wall-to-wall with interactive exhibits, player meet-and-greets, pop-up shops, live performances, panel discussions, games, giveaways, and more.

Fans can test their shooting skills in challenges inspired by stars like A’ja Wilson and Sabrina Ionescu, design custom merchandise, snap selfies in the fit-check tunnel, and even sample premium wines or get a futuristic manicure inspired by the league’s icons. From the State Farm With the Assist tunnel walk to the Google tech zone, from the CarMax All-Star Garage DJ booth to the collectible Panini card station, every corner of the convention center will showcase the vibrance and creativity of the WNBA community.

More than 25 corporate partners — including Ally, AT&T, Coach, DoorDash, DICK’S Sporting Goods, Kia, Wilson, and SLAM — are bringing unique activations. Notable highlights include:

Fans attending WNBA Live will also have the chance to see the league’s championship trophy up close, meet mascot Ellie the Elephant, and grab rare gear from Playa Society and Pro Standard.

Of course, the highlight of the weekend is the AT&T WNBA All-Star Game, which tips off Saturday, July 19 at 8:30 p.m. ET at Gainbridge Fieldhouse, broadcast nationally on ABC. The night before, Friday, July 18, the STARRY® 3-Point Contest and Kia Skills Challenge will take place, also nationally televised, giving fans even more reasons to cheer.

For Hoosiers, this year is particularly special — not only because it’s hosted in the home of the Indiana Fever but also because it marks a milestone year for the league, with record attendance, television ratings, and cultural buzz fueling the festivities.

And it’s not just about basketball — it’s about the movement. WNBA Live embraces the sport’s cultural footprint, bringing together the art, music, and stories that make women’s basketball such a compelling global phenomenon. Fans can even participate in panels about careers in sports, equity, and community leadership through initiatives like the Unstoppable Women’s Sports Business Summit, presented by Deloitte.

Tickets for the game and fan festival are available at Ticketmaster and fans are encouraged to download the WNBA Events App for schedules, maps, notifications, and exclusive perks throughout the weekend.

Whether you’re a die-hard Fever fan, a collector chasing rare memorabilia, a fashion-forward sneakerhead, or just someone who loves the game’s energy — the All-Star Weekend in Indy promises to be nothing short of nothing but net.
