Voting is now open for the 2026 MLB All-Star Game and Kansas City Royals fans can help to send their favorite players to participate in the game and festivities in Philadelphia at Citizens Bank Park on Tuesday, July 14th.
The Royals nominees include.
- C – Salvador Perez
- 1B – Vinnie Pasquantino
- 2B – Michael Massey
- 3B – Maikel Garcia
- SS – Bobby Witt Jr.
- OF's- Isaac Collins, Kyle Isbel, and Jac Caglianone
- DH – Carter Jensen
Voting will take place in two phases. During Phase one, one nominated players from each club at every position will appear on the ballot. At the conclusion of the first phase, the top overall vote-getter in both the American League and National League will automatically earn a starting roster spot at their position.
For all remaining positions, the top two vote-getters at each infield position and the top six outfielders will advance to Phase two of voting which begins Monday, June 29th. The Royals look build on a strong showing from 2025, when the club sent four players to the MLB All-Star Game.
Fans can cast up to five votes per email address each day during the voting period. Voters who submit the maximum five votes per day throughout Phase one will be eligible to receive up to 50% off select ticket purchases. For more information and to vote, visit royals.com/allstar.
The Royals are offering daily voting reminders through the Royals Community texting platform. Fans can sign up by texting “ALL STAR 2026” to 816-6-ROYALS.
The full 2026 MLB All-Star roster will be announced on Saturday, July 4th on FOX.
