Tickets are $25 for general admission, and also available is a special pack for $40 that includes a limited-edition Dodgers holiday beanie.
The film stars Will Ferrell, James Caan, Zoey Deschanel, Jon Favreau and Peter Dinklage. Favreau additionally served as director and paired with David Berenbaum on screenplay. “Elf” released on November 7, 2003 and grossed $225.1 million at the box office.
“Elf” focuses on Buddy, played by Ferrell, who is unaware of being human while raised with elves at the North Pole. He travels to New York in search of his family, when hilarity ensues amid a comedy of errors.
Ferrell has attended several Dodgers and Los Angeles Lakers games over the years, and in 2016 he hosted the annual Kershaw’s Challenge Ping Pong 4 Purpose event.
