The 2024 World Series will be held in two major U.S. cities: Los Angeles and New York. The games will be split between the home stadiums of the two competing teams, representing an East vs. West matchup.
Split Locations for the Championship Series
The allocation of games between these cities ensures that both teams host a significant portion of the series on their home turf. This setup is typical for the World Series, with the higher-seeded team typically hosting games 1, 2, 6, and 7 (if necessary), and the lower-seeded team hosting games 3, 4, and 5 (if necessary). For the 2024 series, Los Angeles is slated to host the initial and potential final games, while New York will host the middle games.
Here's a breakdown of the game schedule and locations:
| Game Number | Location | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Game 1 | Los Angeles | Scheduled |
| Game 2 | Los Angeles | Scheduled |
| Game 3 | New York | Scheduled |
| Game 4 | New York | Scheduled |
| Game 5 | New York | If necessary |
| Game 6 | Los Angeles | If necessary |
| Game 7 | Los Angeles | If necessary |
This alternating structure provides home-field advantage opportunities for both clubs throughout the championship series, building anticipation as the series potentially shifts between the East and West Coasts. Fans in both regions will have the chance to experience the excitement of the Fall Classic live.
