Attendees of the private event will be invited to enter Yankees Stadium beginning at 10 a.m. After batting practice, Broadway star Aaron Tveit will sing the National Anthem, and longtime Broadway producer Manny Azenberg will throw out the cermonial first pitch. The Broadway all-star game will start at 11 a.m., with the Yankees-WFAN game following at 1 p.m. The cocktail reception will be held around 3 p.m. in the Legends Club.
