The latest news is that the Dodgers have officially unveiled UNIQLO Field at Dodger Stadium as the field’s first naming-rights deal, announced in late March 2026. Dodger Stadium itself keeps its name, and the agreement is reported as a five-year partnership worth more than $125 million.[2][5][8]
What changed
The branding appears on the field and around the stadium, including the center-field batter’s eye, beneath the press box, and along the baselines. The team framed it as a historic partnership rather than a full stadium rename.[8][2]
Why it matters
This is the first time the field at Dodger Stadium has had a sponsor name in the franchise’s history. Reports say the move reflects the Dodgers’ growing ties with Japanese brands and comes as the team opens another season chasing a championship.[2][8]
Fan reaction
Local coverage suggests fans will probably keep calling it Dodger Stadium, even though the official field name is now UNIQLO Field at Dodger Stadium. UNIQLO’s founder also said the company understands that reaction and hopes fans will eventually warm to the name.[5]
