On the heels of a victory parade expected to draw tens of thousands of fans to downtown Los Angeles on Friday morning, a celebratory event will be held at Dodger Stadium to cap off the team’s championship season.

Metro will operate its Dodger Express to bring people to Chavez Ravine for the sold-out event that will follow the parade, beginning at 12:15 p.m. Information about Dodger Express can be found at metro.net/riding/dodger-stadium-express.

According to the team, the parking gates at the stadium will open at 8:30 a.m. for Friday’s celebration, and the entrance gates to the stadium will open at 9 a.m. Food and merchandise will be available for purchase. Entertainment will be provided at the stadium prior to the team’s arrival, including coverage of the parade on DodgerVision video boards.

“All Dodger Stadium guidelines and rules will apply to this event, including the reminder not to bring signs, bags or any other items that are not permitted under our policies,” according to a statement from the team.

The Dodgers noted that “due to logistics, traffic and schedules, fans will not be able to attend both events (the parade and the stadium celebration).”

Dodgers officials said a portion of the proceeds from the stadium event will be donated to the Los Angeles Dodgers Foundation, “which is addressing the most pressing issues facing Los Angeles with the mission of improving education, health care, homelessness and social justice for all Angelenos.”

The celebration events will take place on the 64th anniversary of the birth of legendary Dodgers pitcher Fernando Valenzeula, who died on October 22.

“It’s going to be emotional,” Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said. “Fernando was a friend of mine. I know he’s smiling right now and very proud of this organization. So we’re going to miss him. I’m sure it’s something he would have liked to be a part of, but it’s going to be emotional for all of us. “
