The WNBA, seeking to leverage the growing popularity of Caitlin Clark, revealed on Thursday that its 2025 All-Star Game is set to take place at the Indiana Fever's home stadium. This will be the 21st edition of the WNBA All-Star Game and is scheduled for July 19, making it the first time Indianapolis will host this midseason event.

Caitlin Clark, the standout rookie selected first overall by the Indiana Fever in the 2024 WNBA Draft, has transferred her collegiate star power to the professional league, establishing herself as a top attraction. The Indiana Fever lead the league in both home and away game attendance, and television ratings have surged, largely due to Clark's presence.
