Dodgers FanFest Autograph Tickets Go on Sale Tomorrow - Friday!


The Dodgers fourth annual 2016 FanFest is right around the corner and now you can properly plan for the day.  They have just announced the full schedule for the days activities; including the player autograph sessions.

The FanFest will happen "rain or shine."  Although, some events may be curtailed should the weather be too poor.  It will be on Saturday, January 30th from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM.  You should have already downloaded a "FREE" admission ticket.  If you hadn't go here (link here) to do that.  Parking gates open at 9:30 AM and it is free, as well.  You will enter either through the left or right field plaza gates at 10:00 AM.

There will be photo opportunities in the Dodger dugout and with the World Series trophy.  The LA Dodger Foundations (LADF) will host its second annual Yard Sale with one-of-a-kind Dodger items for budgets of all sizes; including jerseys, T-shirts and more. There will also be a Mystery Bag Fundraiser where fans can purchase an official Major League baseball autographed by a current or former Dodger for a $40 donation and autographed jerseys for an $80 donation, while supplies last. Proceeds benefit the programs and charitable giving of LADF.

I've attended the past three FanFest's and shared a bunch of photos from those days (these post also include numerous links of post from other bloggers).  Check out the below links to check them out.  Below that are details about the player autograph sessions.
