The Dodgers' marketing team has always been pretty good at putting out promotional materials and giveaways that make fans want to come out to the ballpark but, to no one's surprise, they've really upped their game over the past few years.
It's going to be no different in 2026. The Dodgers released their full schedule of promotions, complete with a 2025 World Series Game 7 bobblehead series, themed jerseys, replica rings, and so on. LA will have no less than 33 giveaway dates — 24 of which will feature bobbleheads.
Starting with one commemorating Will Smith's game-winning homer from Game 7 and culminating in a Yoshinobu Yamamoto "Starter Series" bobble, Dodgers fans have more reason than ever to get out to Chavez Ravine.
Here's every single bobblehead date. Mark your calendars!
Bobblehead | Date | Opponent |

Will Smith "Game 7 Home Run" | Saturday, March 28 | Diamondbacks |
Mystery Bobblehead | Tuesday, March 31 | Guardians |

For those of you keeping count, that's three different Ohtani bobbles and two for Yamamoto. Rojas — who has never had a bobblehead and said that he hoped to get one before he retires — will finally get his wish on May 8 against the Braves.
Dodgers release full 2026 promotional schedule — and it's a doozy
The nine other scheduled giveaways include a World Series-themed hoodie, Jackie Robinson jersey, replica World Series trophy, 2025 gold jerseys, Dodgers soccer jersey, and mystery replica rings.
For the last two seasons, the Dodgers have occasionally given Ohtani bobbleheads to every fan in attendance instead of limiting them to the first X amount of fans through the gate. It's unclear if that's going to happen this year, but it feels safe enough to assume it'll happen for one of the three dates. Still, the lines that wrap around Dodger Stadium are sure to be intense regardless.
Special event ticket packages and cultural heritage nights are also back, which include special jerseys, caps, and so on (Japanese Heritage Night is Monday, April 27 against the Marlins, and the corresponding jersey is indeed awesome).
Single game tickets are now on sale via MLB.com (and most resale apps, probably), and you might want to run, not walk, to get any for these above dates before they're gone.
