Dodgers: Everything We Know About Fans in the Stands for Opening Day at Dodger Stadium

It’s happening! Los Angeles Dodgers fans will be able to attend games at Dodger Stadium. Last week, the California Department of Public Health gave clearance for Los Angeles Dodgers fans to attend games at Dodger Stadium for the first time since 2019.

With LA County inching closer to the red tier, it would allow the team to host fans at 20 percent capacity as well as the ability to sell food and drinks. We discuss the latest developments regarding the return of fans at Dodger Stadium and how soon we could see a packed house!



Plus, what do you miss most about Dodger Stadium?

California Governor Gavin Newsom has the best case scenario meaning 11,200 fans in the stands for opening day if covid numbers continue to fall. Understandably, Dodgers players are excited to have any number of real, human fans, not the cardboard ones. Adding his two cents, Dave Roberts had this to say.

Any amount of fans is great for all of us.

Notably, the home opener in LA will feature the first World Series ring ceremony for the franchise in a looong time.

What do you think about the best-case scenario of 11,200 fans?

  1. I welcome the 11,200 fans at Dodger Stadium and as the tiers continue to drop more people should be allowed in . I was at the WSCS games 5 and 6 in Arlington TX. in October and there were 13-15k people and it felt like 50,000 so this can be done to protect the safety and health of the fans and players while bringing back the Greatest game in Sport “DODGER BASEBALL

  2. Great that fans will finally be allowed in. The way things were going here with the virus didn’t think that would happen until Aug/Sept.

    The question is ticket availability and prices? I assume season ticket holders get priority (I am not one) and allowed 11,000 attendance is 20% capacity, does that mean ticket prices will be 5 times higher?

    Basically, still a long way before many fans can obtain a seat.
