The NBA All Star Celebrity Game is a part of the annual NBA All Star Weekend, which also includes the Slam Dunk Contest and the NBA All Star Game. This year’s festivities will be held in Cleveland, Ohio at the Wolstein Center.

Alex Toussaint has previously collaborated with ESPN. In May of 2020 he and fellow instructor Robin Arzón taught the All Star Rides, which featured a live competition between professional athletes broadcast on ESPN. The classes were then made available to all Peloton members on demand.
