Aaron Judge and the New York Yankees had another solid season in 2025, finishing with a 94-68 record and first in the AL East. However, after taking down long-time rival Boston Red Sox 2-1 in the AL Wild Card Round, the Yankees saw their season come to an end, falling to eventual runner-up Toronto Blue Jays 3-1 in the ALDS.
Still, Judge continued his stellar career in his 10th season with New York. The right fielder from Sacramento, California, led MLB with a .331 batting average while adding 53 home runs (fourth in the league), 114 RBIs (fifth) and 179 hits (fourth). For his performance in 2025, Judge was also named to his fourth All-MLB First Team and secured his third AL MVP award.
But while Judge and the Yankees prepare for the upcoming 2026 Spring Training, beginning in late February, the MLB superstar will be attending a big event over the Summer.
On Wednesday, the talent lineup for the 2026 Fanatics Fest in New York City was announced by fellow New York star Cam Skattebo of the Giants. The event will take place from July 16-19 at the Jacob K. Javits Center, where fans will be able to interact with star athletes, explore major sports brands and take part in a wide range of fan experiences.
And as he did for the inaugural Fanatics Fest in 2024, Judge will be back for the third-annual event in July, as revealed by Skattebo. Along with Judge, other MLB stars to attend the event include Los Angeles Dodgers first baseman Freddie Freeman and Yankees legendary pitcher CC Sabathia.
