DHL All-Star FanFest Info
With this being Yankee Stadium's last year, the Mid-Summer Classic will be built in the house that Ruth Built for the very last time on Tuesday night July 15.
For the majority of fans who can't afford to attend the All-Star Game festivities, Major League Baseball offers fans the "DHL All-Star FanFest" starting July 11 at:
Jacob K. Javits Convention Center
655 West 34th Street
New York, NY 10001
The All-Star FanFest is being labeled as the "largest interactive baseball spectacular event in the world" and with over 40 interactive events, who could argue with them?
