The 2023 Major League Soccer All-Star Game was the 27th annual Major League Soccer All-Star Game, an exhibition soccer match in the United States. The game, featuring an all-star team from Major League Soccer (MLS) and Premier League club Arsenal, was played on July 19, 2023, at Audi Field in Washington, D.C. The all-star game also included a skills challenge, concerts, and other events in the days before the match.
The 2023 edition marked a return to the former All-Star Game format that pitted the MLS All-Stars against a European club on their preseason tour; the 2021 and 2022 editions had been played against the Liga MX All-Stars. Arsenal won 5–0 and set a new record for largest margin of victory in the MLS All-Star Game.[1]
