Fan Fest is Coming! Date Set for January 31st


Even with all of the recent upheaval in the Dodgers roster, some not liked by fans, I'm sure most everybody remains excited about Fan Fest.  It has become an highly anticipated annual tradition at Dodger Stadium as it helps usher in the new season. There are games for kids, Dodger Dogs for all and autograph sessions with your favorite players.

So, it is with much joy that I let you all know that it appears a date has been set for next seasons Fan Fest. It'll be on Saturday, January 31, 2015.  Check out the Dodger website for more information.  (A Hat Tip to Blue Heaven reader Osmar for the heads up)

There are scant details about the event right now, but I think it's fair to assume that it'll be similar to last year.  There should be plenty of activities for kids; including face painting, carnival rides and games.  Dodger apparel will be for sale and a stage will be set up for interviews with your favorite Dodger players.  Best yet, there should be another autograph session.  Hopefully, they run it like last year.  You were able to purchase autograph tickets online with all proceeds going to the Dodgers Foundation.

On a side note, I hope the Dodgers bring back the vintage museum filled with memorabilia and collectibles.  Noted collector and owner of the Sports Museum of Los Angels, Gary Cypres, brought out a bunch of his stuff to show to fans a couple of years back.  Unfortunately, it was absent last year.

Take a look back at my past post of this event below.  There are plenty of photos to look through.

Here is a video from last years Fan Fest.
