It’s been 25 years since San Francisco hosted the NBA All-Star Game, and now the ball’s back in our court. It’s happening this Sunday at the Chase Center—hosted by the awesome Kevin Hart.
But the excitement stretches across the entire NBA All-Star 2025 weekend with multiple events and activations. In particular, here’s what you should know about the fan-forward NBA Crossover.

What is the NBA G League Next Up Game?
The NBA G League Next Up Game presented by AT&T happens at the NBA Crossover on Sunday, February 16 from 12:30 to 2pm. At this game, 28 top G League players compete on four teams in a tournament-style competition, playing three games with a target score of 30. It’s fast-paced in the intimate G League Park within NBA Crossover.
How can fans meet players?
A number of NBA players, including legends, appear during Crossover to talk on panels, sign autographs and let fans take photos. These appearances are on a first-come, first-served basis. To know which players, download the NBA Events App to see the schedules for player appearances.
Does an NBA Crossover ticket grant access to the NBA All-star Concerts?
No, you’ll have to purchase a separate ticket for those Pier 48 concerts, which include sets from Zedd, Flo Rida, Noah Kahan, Gary Clark Jr., the Chainsmokers and 2 Chainz. If you have an NBA All-Star Concerts 3 DAY VIP+ ticket, you do have access to both the concerts and Crossover.
Okay, how much are the concerts?
They’re $150 a day and $400 for all three days. VIP tickets get you closer to the stage and are $250 a day and $650 for all three days.
Is there wine?
That seems an odd question but yes! For the first time ever, the NBA has designated an official wine partner, and it’s Kendall-Jackson in Santa Rosa. At the Crossover, Kendall-Jackson is hosting several events, like a GameTok with Crissa Jackson and Greydy Diaz: Rising Stars Panel (Feb 14), a Play Meet & Greet: Terance Mann (Feb 14), a Wine & Design Panel with Victor Solomon and Derrick Westbrook (Feb 15) and an All-Star Game Analysis panel with Marc Spears and Festus Azeli (Feb 16). Kendall-Jackson is also part of events at Pier 70 with a pop-up wine bar, like a blind tasting with Cameron Brink, forward for the Los Angeles Sparks WNBA team, (Feb 14) and an All-Star watch party with wine (Feb 16).
