This event is a special collaboration linked with “YOKOHAMA STAR☆NIGHT 2026 Supported by The Bank of Yokohama,” which will be held at Yokohama Stadium from Tuesday, August 4 to Thursday, August 6, featuring games against the Hanshin Tigers.
“YOKOHAMA STAR☆NIGHT” is the team’s signature summer special event, hosted by the Yokohama DeNA BayStars since 2012.
In 2026, the event expands beyond Yokohama Stadium to Minato Mirai, one of Yokohama’s most iconic spots. It evolves into an “urban sports entertainment event that uses the entire sky of Yokohama as its stage.”
For the “YOKOHAMA STAR☆NIGHT DRONE SHOW” in the Minato Mirai area, Japan’s largest (*1) fleet of 3,500 drones will light up the Minato Mirai night sky. Rinko Park will serve as the viewing area, and anyone can watch the show for free.
