After drawing around 3,100 fans, the West Coast League announced its All-Star Game will return to Bellingham in July 2025.
“It’s hard to imagine a better All-Star extravaganza than what we enjoyed last summer,” WCL Commissioner Rob Neyer said on the WCL website. “But with the Bells building on 2024’s success, I have no doubt we’ll see another tremendous event next summer.”
The Bells will have a similar format throughout a two-day experience. On July 15, the Bellingham Bells will bring back the Max Higbee Center for the Community Champions game. On the second day, the festivities begin with a fan fest, skills workout for all-star players in front of college and MLB scouts and post-game fireworks.
“We were really happy because when you try and do that much, not everything is going to go perfect but it was close to perfect,” Bells general manager Stephanie Morrell said in July 2024 after the series. “I really enjoyed that it was a blank canvas and we got to enjoy how our vision played out.”
The first pitch of the All-Star Game will be at 6:35 p.m. and tickets will be available for purchase starting April 1, 2025 at bellstickets.com.
