LOS ANGELES (June 11, 2026) – The Los Angeles Dodgers Foundation (LADF) will help kick off the summer with its annual Dodgers Dreamteam PlayerFest, presented by Bank of America, on Sunday, June 14, from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. at UNIQLO Field at Dodger Stadium.
The highly anticipated event will welcome over 5,000 participants, families, and coaches, who will take over the iconic ballpark for a day, with unique access to the Centerfield Plaza, the warning track, bullpens, and dugouts. Throughout the day, attendees will have the opportunity to receive health screenings and educational resources, meet Dodger Alumni, take pictures with the 2025 World Series trophy, tour the stadium, receive giveaway items from various sponsors and partners, and participate in a variety of engaging, hands-on activities.
Free resources at PlayerFest include hygiene kits from Baby2Baby, education resources from the Los Angeles Library Foundation and C5LA, snacks from Archer Meat Snacks, baseball and softball instruction from Los Angeles Dodgers Training Academy, transportation resources from Los Angeles Metro, produce boxes from Los Angeles Regional Food Bank, Science of Baseball STEM in partnership with Science of Sport, fitness stations from UCLA Health Sports Performance powered by Exos, and vision screenings from Vision to Learn. LADF will also be joined by the Los Angeles Lakers, Los Angeles Sparks, and Los Angeles Kings with fun activities and giveaways.
“We love being in the heart of communities across Los Angeles and serving the youth and families who need us most, but we’re equally excited to welcome our Dodgers Dreamteam family back to the home of the back-to-back World Series champion Dodgers,” said Nichol McKenzie-Whiteman, CEO of the Los Angeles Dodgers Foundation. “We’ll celebrate our community and our partners, who have helped us serve 17,000 youth across 156 locations, and we look forward to growing that impact even further.”
LADF is committed to scaling the Dodgers Dreamteam program and expanding equitable access to sport across Los Angeles County. PlayerFest helps it mobilize partners, raise awareness of community needs, and drive program enrollment, ensuring more young people can access high-quality, community-based baseball and softball programming.
Bank of America was the first Dodgers Dreamteam sponsor and is this year’s Dodgers Dreamteam Community Ambassador Sponsor. It will once again be the presenting sponsor of PlayerFest. Bank of America deploys hundreds of its employees to volunteer and support Dodgers Dreamteam programming throughout the year.
“It’s truly unique that every year our beloved world champs open Dodger Stadium to thousands of Angeleno families to access vital services and fun activities for kids,” said Maria Arias, senior vice president, Community Relations at Bank of America. “We’re proud to once again rally behind the Los Angeles Dodgers Foundation with more than 250 BofA employees who volunteer to help make this year’s PlayerFest the best yet.”
The Los Angeles Dodgers Foundation would also like to thank its generous program sponsors and partners for their continued support of Dodgers Dreamteam and for advancing the Foundation’s vision of a city where everyone, regardless of ZIP code, has the opportunity to thrive:
