Godzilla Minus Zero x Dodgers: September 24 Collab Night Guide

(Published July 17, 2026)

The official X account for the upcoming film Godzilla Minus Zero (@g_minus_zero) has announced a “Godzilla Minus Zero Night” collaboration with the Los Angeles Dodgers, set to take place on Thursday, September 24, 2026 (local time) at UNIQLO Field at Dodger Stadium when the Dodgers host the San Diego Padres. With Shohei Ohtani and Yoshinobu Yamamoto both on the Dodgers roster, the crossover between MLB’s most-watched team and Toho’s legendary kaiju franchise has drawn attention from fans on both sides of the Pacific. Here’s what’s confirmed so far.

What Is Godzilla Minus Zero Night?

“Godzilla Minus Zero Night” is a collaboration announced by the official Godzilla Minus Zero X account, tied to a Dodgers home game at UNIQLO Field at Dodger Stadium. The event is scheduled for Thursday, September 24, 2026 (local time), when the Dodgers face the San Diego Padres. As of this writing, no outlet other than the official movie account has reported further specifics, so details on giveaways or special ticket packages have not yet been confirmed by the Dodgers or Toho.

Date, Venue, and Matchup

The game is set for Thursday, September 24, 2026 (local time), with the Los Angeles Dodgers hosting the San Diego Padres. The venue is Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles, which was renamed “UNIQLO Field at Dodger Stadium” after UNIQLO and the Dodgers signed the retailer’s first full-scale U.S. sports partnership in March 2026. UNIQLO branding now appears above the center-field video board and along the press-box facade, and the deal also includes fan events and in-stadium retail space.

Will There Be a Drone Show?

According to the Dodgers’ own 2026 drone show calendar, September 24 against the Padres is listed as the final scheduled drone show date of the season. The Dodgers have previously run drone shows themed around properties like One Piece and Disney films, so it is plausible that a Godzilla-themed sequence could be part of the September 24 show. However, the specific theme had not been officially confirmed as of this writing, so fans should watch for an official update closer to the date.

About the Film: Godzilla Minus Zero

Godzilla Minus Zero is the direct sequel to 2023’s Godzilla Minus One, with director/writer/VFX supervisor Takashi Yamazaki returning. It is the 38th film in the overall Godzilla franchise and the 31st live-action entry produced in Japan. The film opens in Japan on Tuesday, November 3, 2026 (“Godzilla Day”), the same date as the original 1954 Godzilla and Godzilla Minus One. In North America, GKIDS will distribute a wide theatrical release beginning Friday, November 6, 2026, marking the first time a Japan-made Godzilla film has opened in Japan and North America on nearly the same date. Production was announced in November 2024, and the title and logo were first revealed at the “Godzilla Fest 2025” event on November 3, 2025.

A History of Godzilla x Dodgers Crossovers

This is not the first time Godzilla and the Dodgers have teamed up. On Opening Day, March 27, 2025 (local time) at Dodger Stadium, the team debuted a collaboration video featuring an arrangement of the Godzilla theme, with Japanese Dodgers players Shohei Ohtani, Yoshinobu Yamamoto, and Roki Sasaki appearing in the footage. The video played during player introductions and continued to run at every home game throughout the 2025 season. This year’s Godzilla Minus Zero collaboration builds on that 2025 partnership.

Planning to Attend? What We Know About Tickets

As of this writing, neither the Dodgers nor Toho has released official details on giveaways or special ticket packages for September 24. Fans hoping to attend should keep an eye on the Dodgers’ official ticketing site and Dodger Stadium schedule page for updates. Games featuring Ohtani and Yamamoto tend to draw strong demand, and themed nights with special promotions often sell out quickly once details are confirmed, so it is worth acting fast once official information drops.
