In a ballpark not too far, far away…

The Blue Jays host its second-annual Star Wars™ Night, featuring an autograph session with the first Canadian astronaut to walk in space, Chris Hadfield

August 28th, 2019

It’s not a trap! The TORONTO BLUE JAYS present its second-annual Star Wars™ Night on Friday, Aug. 30 when the team hosts an intergalactic battle against the Houston Astros at 7:07 p.m.

Do. Or do not. There is no try – the Blue Jays are going out of this world to bring Chris Hadfield to Rogers Centre. The first Canadian astronaut to walk in space will be available for autographs pregame in the WestJet Flight Deck from 5:45 to 6:30 p.m. on Friday. Hadfield will then launch the ceremonial first pitch as part of pregame ceremonies with the iconic Snowbirds – the Canadian Force’s 431 Air Demonstration Squadron – and the Red Arrows – the British Royal Air Force’s Aerobatic Team.

Use the force to get your tickets now at bluejays.com/promotions. The first 15,000 fans to land at Rogers Centre will receive a Blue Jays Star Wars™ Hat Giveaway. All fans that attend the game can get their pictures taken with characters from the Galactic Empire and the Rebel Alliance, try their light saber skills at VR Jedi Training, fuel up with Wookie Cookies, and much more. Not even gravity could bring down our excitement for this interstellar night!
