Utah To Host All-Star Game

The Jazz are preparing to host the All-Star game in Salt Lake City for the first time since 1993.

“We’re going to roll from Salt Lake to Park City,” said Jazz owner Ryan Smith during the 2022 All-Star broadcast. “Don’t come for a couple of days, come for the whole week.”

Last February, the Jazz released a video of all 30 All-Star logos dating back to when it was in Utah.

The Jazz were awarded the 2023 game when the team was still under the ownership of the Miller family.

In 2016, Vivint Arena received a $125 million renovation under the Miller’s which helped them land the star-studded weekend.
