Sacramento has never hosted the NBA All-Star game, but the Kings have high hopes of doing so in the future because of their new arena — the Golden 1 Center.
The team is bidding for Sacramento to host either All-Star weekend in 2022 or 2023, and in order to set the bid apart from others, it is emphasizing a “tech-enhanced experience” that would be developed surrounding the event at the high-tech arena.
All-Star guests would be able to move from transportation hubs to accommodations to venues in 30 minutes or less via a network of autonomous vehicles, dedicated All-star transportation lanes and a personalized virtual concierge called SASCHA (Sacramento All-Star Concierge Host with AI).
