Home Alone Under the Stars at Dodger Stadium: Family Movie Night Guide!

2 days ago
5 min read

Dodger Stadium is showing Home Alone (rated PG) on Saturday, November 28, 2026, with gates opening at 4:00 PM and the movie starting at 6:00 PM. Families can watch from the outfield grass or field-level seats on UNIQLO Field.


Think of it as a holiday kickoff with a baseball twist: a giant videoboard, a blanket on the grass, and Kevin McCallister outsmarting the Wet Bandits under the night sky. Add pre-show photo ops and bullpen pitching, and it becomes an easy way to start the Christmas season with kids of all ages.

What Families Can Expect


Gates open two hours before the movie, and that early window is the best part. According to the Dodgers, pre-show activities include photo opportunities, pitching in the bullpen, behind-the-scenes tours and family activities, available until the movie starts or supplies run out.


Then the lights go down and Home Alone plays on the DodgerVision videoboards. You can choose outfield grass, where most families will want a blanket and cushions, or field-level seats. Both are first come, first served, so arriving early helps if you want a favorite spot.


Select concessions with movie-style items are available, and the stadium is cashless. For more on what the Dodgers say about the event, see the Dodgers 365 events page.



Tickets, Seating and Age Rules


We could not find a ticket price on the official Dodgers pages we checked, so check the ticket page for current rates before you plan your budget. Buyers must accept a waiver and likeness authorization before purchasing, and all sales are final with no refunds, returns or exchanges.


Children under 3 enter free when sitting on a parent's or guardian's lap. If a child under 3 needs their own seat, you will need to buy a ticket. Accessible seating is available in premium baseline seats through the Welcome Center in Centerfield Plaza.


The movie is rated PG. Home Alone has some slapstick mishaps and booby traps, so it suits most elementary-age kids and up. Parents of very young children may want to check the rating details and decide what works for their family.



What to Bring and What to Leave Home


Blankets, seat cushions and chairs without metal framing are encouraged. Inflatable furniture, bean bags and seats with metal framing are not permitted, so leave the beanbag chairs in the garage.


Bag Policy


Only adult diaper bags, infant diaper bags, clear plastic bags (12" x 12" x 6") and non-clear wristlets or clutches (5" x 8" x 2") are permitted.


Food and Drinks


Outside food is allowed only in clear bags up to 12" x 12" x 6" and non-glass containers. Factory-sealed plastic bottles of one liter or less, non-alcoholic, are also allowed. Concessions are available if you would rather buy a Dodger-style bite.

Parking and Getting There


Parking is complimentary for the event. The main entrance is Sunset Gate A, and Uber is permitted for drop-off and pick-up at that gate. The stadium is at 1000 Vin Scully Avenue, Los Angeles, CA 90012.


Gates open at 4:00 PM, so you do not need to rush to catch the 6:00 PM movie. Leave extra time for traffic around Chavez Ravine, especially on a holiday weekend, and have your tickets ready on your phone.



Are There Other Movie Nights at Dodger Stadium?


Not at the moment. As of early October 2026, Home Alone on November 28 is the only upcoming movie night listed on the Dodgers 365 events page. The stadium screened The Sandlot on August 8 earlier this season, so more dates could appear in the future.


The same events page lists Upper Deck Golf on December 4 to 6, which is a separate ticketed experience with tee times rather than a family movie. We will update this post if the Dodgers add more movie nights.
