The 2026 Dodgers are already setting records, even before the first official pitch of the season.
According to the ticket site TickPick, prices for the team's Opening Day game on Thursday against the Arizona Diamondbacks are hitting record highs, with an average purchase price of $392 on the resale market.

That marks the highest price for an MLB home-opener on record, according to TickPick.
It is also the most expensive price ever for a regular-season game played at an MLB ballpark.
The only game in league history that featured a higher average ticket price was the "Field of Dreams" game in 2022 between the Chicago Cubs and Cincinnati Reds , but that was played before a capacity of less than 8,000 fans at the iconic Iowa cornfield used in the movie of the same name.
Tickets for this year's home-opener, in which the Dodgers will raise a banner for their 2025 World Series championship during a pregame ceremony, are also 55% more expensive than the team's home-opener a season ago, when they celebrated their 2024 championship.

The "get-in" price for the game is currently $196, as well, far surpassing the next most expensive home-opener for this season ($119 for when the San Francisco Giants host the New York Yankees on Wednesday).
Thursday will kick off a weekend-long celebration of the Dodgers' 2025 title.
On Friday, there will be another pregame ceremony in which members of last year's team are awarded their World Series rings.
The games will also feature the unveiling of the Dodgers' new presenting field sponsor, Uniqlo . The team has a press conference scheduled for Wednesday to officially announce the partnership, which is expected to include the renaming of the stadium's playing surface as "Uniqlo Field at Dodger Stadium."
