Baseball enthusiasts eager for Shohei Ohtani bobbleheads can now mark their calendars for when to show up at Dodger Stadium to snag these coveted collectibles.
The Dodgers shared their promotional schedule for the 2026 season on Monday, revealing three special Ohtani giveaways.
The first giveaway is set for April 10th, coinciding with the Dodgers’ matchup against the Rangers. This event commemorates Ohtani’s incredible three-home run game that clinched the NLCS championship against Milwaukee.
Next, on July 8th, another Ohtani bobblehead will be distributed before the Dodgers face the Rockies. This one celebrates his impressive pitching display, which included 10 strikeouts during a memorable game against the Brewers back in October 2025.
The last Ohtani bobblehead will debut on August 22nd before the game against the Pirates. This “Starter Series” edition features Ohtani on the mound in a World Series game against the Blue Jays in Los Angeles.
Since the Dodgers started giving out Ohtani bobbleheads in his inaugural season with the team in 2024, excitement has surged among fans in Chavez Valley.
Long lines have become a common sight, with many attendees arriving hours ahead of the game to grab the merchandise.
Aside from Ohtani, the Dodgers also announced bobblehead promotions for several other high-profile players. Kyle Tucker’s will debut before the Dodgers’ game against LA on July 31st, while retired star Clayton Kershaw’s giveaway is scheduled for August 14th ahead of a game against the Brewers. Fans can also look forward to bobbleheads featuring Mookie Betts, Max Muncy, Yoshinobu Yamamoto, and Freddie Freeman this season.
Interestingly, non-Dodgers personalities like Ice Cube and Shaquille O’Neal are also part of the upcoming giveaways.
