For the first time since 2019, Major League Baseball will hold a Players Weekend.

MLB announced on Thursday a "reimagined" version of the event will take place from Aug. 16 to 18 with different aspects of players' lives being highlighted via in-stadium events, television broadcasts and social media.

Players will be wearing special New Era hats that feature their uniform number on the side panel in a "youthful design."

The previous incarnation of Players Weekend ran from 2017 through 2019. Players wore custom uniforms with youth sports designs and their nicknames on the back.

Players were also allowed to use custom-made gear, including cleats, batting gloves and bats.

Due to the shortened 60-game season in 2020 and MLB's agreement with Nike to make it the official on-field apparel and merchandise designer, Players Weekend wasn't included on the schedule after 2019.

This new iteration will have themes for each day of the weekend. Day 1 will feature personalities, friendships and off-the-field interests for the players. Day 2 will focus on their charitable ventures. Day 3 celebrates people who helped them on their journey to the big leagues, including parents, family members, coaches and mentors.

MLB will also permit players to use customized bats and cleats. The jerseys will remain the same and feature no nickname on the back.

Notable matchups during Players Weekend include the Toronto Blue Jays vs. Chicago Cubs at Wrigley Field and Boston Red Sox vs. Baltimore Orioles at Camden Yards.

Nationally televised games that weekend will feature the Los Angeles Dodgers and St. Louis Cardinals on Aug. 17 and the Little League Classic between the New York Yankees and Detroit Tigers on ESPN's Sunday Night Baseball on Aug. 18 from Williamsport, Pennsylvania.
