The Boston Celtics are interested in hosting All-Star weekend in 2029. According to team president Rich Gotham who was speaking with Gary Washburn of the Boston Globe, the franchise has held preliminary discussions with the league office. The city of Boston hasn’t hosted an All-Star weekend since 1964, despite the inaugural festivities being held in the city back in 1951.
Should Boston be approved as the 2029 All-Star weekend host, it will be the first time in 67 years. For most Celtics fans, it will be the first time the city has held the festivities within their lifetime.
