Already planning which Padres games to attend this year? The San Diego team is building even more excitement for the 2024 season after announcing its giveaway schedule on Thursday, which includes Manny Machado bobbleheads, City Connect belt bags and more.
These branded items will be handed out to the first 40,000 Padres fans during select home games when gates open at Petco Park, according to a press release. One giveaway item can be redeemed with each ticket scanned while supplies last.
On two Sundays — June 23 and Aug. 25 — the first 8,000 children ages 14 and below can get a special item, the team said. Spoiler alert: the items are a Rookie Plush Pillow and a Padres Tin Lunchbox.
Several of the clothing items will be offered in both adult and youth sizes, the Padres said.
