The Pro Volleyball Federation (PVF) has unveiled plans for its inaugural All-Star Match, a marquee event set to showcase the league’s top talent on Saturday, February 22, 2025, at the Fishers Event Center, home of the newly established Indy Ignite. Marking a major milestone for professional volleyball in the United States, the match will air nationally on CBS Television Network, the first time an All-Star volleyball match will be broadcast on such a platform.
“This will be a defining moment for our league and the sport of volleyball,” said PVF CEO Jen Spicher. “Partnering with CBS to bring the All-Star Match to a national audience underscores our commitment to growing visibility for our athletes and providing unparalleled access to volleyball fans everywhere.”
The Fishers Event Center, which opened in November 2024, is already becoming a focal point for sports and entertainment in Central Indiana. In addition to hosting the Indy Ignite’s inaugural season starting January 11, 2025, the facility is also home to the Indy Fuel (ECHL) and the Fishers Freight (IFL). Tickets to Indy Ignite matches begin at $30 and are available at indyignitevb.com.
Mary Kay Huse, president and general manager of the Indy Ignite, expressed enthusiasm for hosting the All-Star event. “This is nothing short of epic,” she said. “We’re grateful for the support of the Indiana Sports Corp, Hamilton County Sports Authority, and the City of Fishers. Hosting this event during our inaugural season is a testament to the incredible momentum for women’s professional volleyball in our community.”
The PVF All-Star Match is the third major All-Star event announced for Central Indiana in 18 months. The NBA All-Star Game took place at Gainbridge Fieldhouse in February 2024, and the WNBA All-Star Game is slated for the same venue in July 2025. This influx of high-profile events solidifies Indiana’s growing reputation as a hub for professional sports, particularly women’s athletics.
“Indianapolis and Indiana continue to elevate women’s sports,” said Sarah Myer, Chief of Staff and Strategy for Indiana Sports Corp. “To host three All-Star events within 18 months underscores the state’s ability to bring communities together and crown champions.”
The Hamilton County Sports Authority will lead the All-Star Host Committee, comprising regional leaders dedicated to promoting premier events. “Thanks to the region’s devoted sports expertise and fandom, the PVF All-Star Game exemplifies a world-class event choosing Indiana as its host,” said Carl Daniels, director of the authority.
Details on the All-Star match selection process, coaches, and format will be announced in the coming weeks. Tickets for the game will also be available soon, promising volleyball fans an unforgettable experience as the PVF’s best players take the court.
