The full list of the Toronto Blue Jays' 2026 promotional giveaways is here.

On February 4, the Blue Jays released the first wave of giveaways for Opening Weekend, which revolves around their 2025 American League title. Today, the remaining giveaways and specialty ticket items have been announced, and there truly is something for everyone.

From bobbleheads to apparel and many pop-culture collaborations, here's what's coming to the Rogers Centre in 2026.

Blue Jays announce promotional days for 2026 which include some quirky giveaways

April

Three items have been revealed for April, and two of them have people talking.

On April 11, an Addison Barger Couch t-shirt will be given away to the first 15,000 fans, which goes back to the big talking point before Game 1 of the 2025 World Series. Davis Schneider made headlines when he revealed that Barger slept on his couch the night before Game 1. The image of Barger playing video games on Schneider's couch would turn legendary after Barger crushed the first pinch-hit grand slam in World Series history.

Then there's one of the most unexpected collaborations nobody saw coming. The Blue Jays announced a SpongeBob SquarePants-themed jersey for holders of specialty tickets. Decorated with Songebob's iconic look, it will be available only with a specialty ticket. Whatever the reason for having this jersey, it looks amazing, and everybody should get one.

To round out April, an Ernie Clement hockey jersey will drop for the first 15,000 fans on April 27. Don't forget, the first week of the season will focus on celebrating the World Series birth.

May

Four giveaways are dropping in May, plus another jersey that'll excite Anime fans.

Barbie Day is back at the Rogers Centre, and this time, a reversible bucket hat will drop for the first 15,000 fans. The Blue Jays have also brought back Cricket Night, with a Blue Jays cricket sweater vest for the first 15,000 fans at the ballpark.

Anime fans will have a blast from the past as the Blue Jays announce a Naruto-Blue Jays-themed jersey for May 13, available with a specialty ticket. The popular Japanese manga, later adapted into a television series, was prominent in the mid-2000s and remains popular among fans today. With the title character prominently featured on the back of the jersey, this will be an item anime fans won't want to miss.

Finally, another Vladimir Guerrero Jr. bobblehead will drop on May 25, highlighting young Vladdy in that famous photo with his dad in his Expos jersey, holding an Expos helmet high in the air. Vladdy told the world he was 'born ready' after Toronto secured a Game 7 in the ALCS, and that all goes back to that day with his dad in Montreal.

June

June will be a very busy month at the Rogers Centre. As of this writing, June will have the most giveaways on the regular-season calendar with five days.

Pride Night returns on June 6, with the first 15,000 getting a City Connect Pride Hat. The Gate 14 Podcast will collaborate with the Blue Jays yet again, and the newest Blue Jay, Dylan Cease, will get his first bobblehead as a Blue Jay.

Mr. Potato Head fans will be thrilled to receive a Blue Jays-themed potato with a specialty ticket. However, the giveaway of the month goes to Andres Gimenez and his Blue Jays soccer jersey. The 2026 FIFA World Cup opens on June 11, and Canada's first game in Toronto falls on June 12, the same day as the jersey giveaway. Assuming most of Toronto will have all eyes on Canada's first game on home soil, you could maybe sneak over to the Rogers Centre and get your Gimenez jersey.

July

Surprisingly, only two giveaways have been announced for July. That's pretty strange, considering there's nothing on Canada Day, though a recent tease suggests something is coming for Canada's birthday.

Blue Jays fans caught a red, sleeveless Shane Bieber jersey with the franchise's font from the late 90s. In 1997, the Blue Jays wore red sleeveless jerseys on Canada Day, and it appears to be making a comeback in 2026 as part of the 50th-season celebration plans. For now, we wait and see what Canada Day will bring this year.

What has been confirmed is a Kazuma Okamoto t-shirt and a collaboration with Stranger Things, including a Mike Wheeler bobblehead. Star Canadian actor Finn Wolfhard was seen wearing a Blue Jays jersey last year, which may be why his Stranger Things character is getting a bobblehead.

August

Over to August with three giveaways. Youth Baseball Day will be held on August 12, and those with a specialty ticket will receive a Blue Jays elbow guard. To commemorate the 40th anniversary of Transformers, the Blue Jays collaborated with the longtime franchise to give away a Blue Jays Transformers hat on August 1.

Finally, and perhaps the cutest item available this season, is a Care Bear with a Blue Jays jersey for those who purchased specialty tickets. How could you not want an adorable teddy bear?

September

We reached the final month of the regular season, and it marks the return of another popular collaboration that's more accessible to the public.

The Blue Jays have once again collaborated with Hello Kitty, and another bobblehead is up for grabs. Unlike last year, this will be available to the first 15,000 fans rather than only with a specialty ticket. Considering the hype of last year's Hello Kitty night, you can expect this day to be another long wait in line to grab your bobblehead.

Last but not least, it's Fan Appreciation Weekend on September 26 and 27. Will those turn out to be important games for the Blue Jays in terms of a playoff run? Only time will tell, but may as well be part of festivities on the final weekend of the regular season.
