Here are this weekends autograph opportunities and events throughout the Southland. As always, be sure to check the
Blue Heaven Calendar for other events (a link can always be found on the tab at the top of this
page, just left of center), and always confirm with the establishment.
Everything is subject to change.
Please email me with
any tips about upcoming events in Southern California. As the rest of
the week progresses I'll update this post with other events (if there
are any) as I become aware of them. Also, I don't always list every event below, so be sure to check my
Calendar. I always try to favor free signing events over paying events. Click on any pic to embiggen.

This coming Saturday at Dodger Stadium is the Dodgers FanFest. The festivities begin at 10:00 AM and conclude at 4:00 PM. Parking gates open at 9:30 AM and is free. Check out a
Dodgers press release about the event here.
As you probably know, the Dodgers sold voucher tickets for the 24 different signing sessions taking place on Monday, and as of this writing tickets are still available for 2 of the sessions.
Go here to check it out. An autograph session voucher ticket cost $10.00, and all proceeds benefit the Los Angeles Dodgers Foundation.
Autograph vouchers must be presented at each session where they will be
scanned prior to entering the designated line. Each voucher will be good
for two total autographs. There will be two people per line signing
autographs. Only one (1) autograph per signer per voucher. Fans may
bring person items for autographs.
In addition to autograph sessions with current and former Dodger
players, FanFest will feature various family friendly activities
including: inflatable games, photo booths and photo opportunities, a
batting cage, a wiffleball park, trampoline, face painting, balloon art,
arts and crafts, DJ spin art and a memorabilia exhibit. Several Dodger
sponsors will be on site with activities and giveaways including
Anheuser Busch, Blue Prints, Chef Merito, Clear Channel Radio,
Coca-Cola, Mother's Cookies, State Farm, SportsNet LA and Univision
Radio and TV. The Los Angeles Dodgers Foundation (LADF) will have
mystery bags containing autographed jerseys, baseballs and photos for a
cash donation with all proceeds benefiting the LADF.
