Enjoy the sports events in 2021
The pandemic changed all sports calendars in 2020 and major events were highly affected by Covid-19 protocols. This year’s schedule is far from being back to normal, but we can start thinking about attending our favorite sports events in 2021!
We have all been focused on Super Bowl LV, but there are other important sporting events to come – although the dates are extremely different from what we are used to.
The 2020-21 NHL season will, in effect, be a 2021 season. The NBA started almost at Christmas and will invade July. The NFL, NBA, NHL, and MLB All-Star Games have been postponed.
Other important dates have not yet been announced and there is only an intention to carry them out at a particular time of the year.
In order not to get lost in this mess, here is the 2021 calendar (so far). It’s important to remember that all dates will be subject to changes according to restrictions that may arise.
