Where is the Little League World Series in 2024?

The Little League World Series has been held in South Williamsport, Pennsylvania since the event’s founding in 1947. The postal address for Little League International, which runs the annual event, is Williamsport, so that’s where the tournament’s home is commonly called.

Games have been held at Howard J. Lamade Stadium since 1959. The adjoining Volunteer Stadium was first used in 2001; it hosts the international bracket games through the first week and a half of the tournament.
