The 2022 MLB All-Star Game is not for everyone. And if anyone wants to watch the All-Star Game in Dodger Stadium, then be prepared to spend a lot of money. Because this time the ticket prices are so high that one has to think twice before spending such a massive amount of money on a baseball game.

If reports are accurate, then the 2022 MLB All-Star Game ticket prices have reached a new high, an 83% hike compared to last season’s tickets. This massive price hike in ticket prices has come amidst a strike threat from the Dodger Stadium concession workers.

Notably, just a couple of days ago, the Dodger Stadium staff—represented by UNITE HERE Local 11, issued a statement demanding a new union contract from management. However, it is still not clear, whether the hike has come after the strike threat from the stadium staff or was it a pre-planned move from All-Star Game hosts.
