Dodgers Hello Kitty Night tops list of 2024 promo nights
LOS ANGELES - It's less than 60 days until the Los Angeles Dodgers open the 2024 season at home against the St. Louis Cardinals, with a roster full of stars new and old. The team has announced that single-game tickets for the upcoming season go on sale on Friday, Feb. 2, but another announcement on Wednesday may help fans pick which games they want to snag those tickets for.
The Dodgers announced their promo night and giveaway schedule for the 2024 season Wednesday, with loads of giveaways for things like bobbleheads, jerseys and more; plenty of heritage and appreciation nights, and more than a dozen drone and fireworks shows.
One of the most interesting promo nights announced is Hello Kitty Night, scheduled for April 16, when the Dodgers take on the Washington Nationals. Fans who buy the special ticket package for that night will get a Hello Kitty-themed Dodger bag. The promotional photo for the bag shows a fuzzy, white bag, featuring Hello Kitty in a Dodger cap.

Star Wars night is also coming to Dodger Stadium on May 6, and while the official page for the promotional night just says fans can get "an exclusive Star Wars item," the promotional photo appears to show a bobblehead of the Millenium Falcon flying over Dodger Stadium.

The bobblehead giveaways this season are also plentiful, and feature new and old faces on the team, as well as some Dodger legends. Newly signed Shohei Ohtani will be featured twice on Dodger bobbleheads — on May 16 and Sept 21. While the team's only shared the image for the May 16 giveaway, showing Ohtani in a batting stance, it may be safe to assume his second bobblehead night will feature him on the pitcher's mound. Freddie Freeman, Mookie Betts, Walker Buehler and Yoshinobu Yamamoto, Sandy Koufax and Dusty Baker will all also have their own bobblehead nights. While several other dates are scheduled as bobblehead nights right now, the team hasn't said who will be featured.
The team will also be celebrating Mexican, Korean, Black, Japanese, Salvadoran, Filipino and Guatemalan heritage, with designated nights throughout the season, featuring some unique giveaways.
Dodger Stadium will also host drone shows on Mar. 29, April 12, April 19, May 3, June 21, July 5, July 19, Aug. 9, Aug. 23 and Sept. 6, and fireworks shows on May 17, May 31, June 14, July 4 and Sept. 6.
