Dream Factory x Brooklyn Cyclones Charity Game 2026
Sunday, August 16, 2026, 1400 - 1700
Step up to the plate for an afternoon of baseball, community, and life-changing impact at the Dream Factory of Brooklyn x Brooklyn Cyclones Charity Game. On Sunday, August 16, 2026, the Brooklyn Cyclones face off against the Jersey Shore BlueClaws at Coney Island's iconic Maimonides Park, with first pitch at 2:00 PM. Gates open one hour before game time so you can soak in the sights, sounds, and salt air of one of New York City's most beloved ballparks.
This isn't just a ballgame - it's a chance to be part of something bigger. Every ticket purchased through Dream Factory of Brooklyn directly supports our mission of granting dreams to Brooklyn children living with chronic and life-threatening illnesses. For these kids and their families, a single dream can mean a moment of pure joy in the middle of an unimaginably difficult journey. It can mean a memory that lasts a lifetime. It can mean hope.
About Dream Factory of Brooklyn
Dream Factory of Brooklyn is the largest all-volunteer children's dream-granting organization in New York City. Every dollar raised, every dream granted, and every event hosted is powered entirely by volunteers who believe deeply in our mission. With no paid staff, an extraordinary percentage of every contribution goes directly to the children and families we serve. We focus exclusively on Brooklyn - our neighbors, our community, our kids - making each dream deeply personal and locally rooted.
We believe every child deserves a moment of magic, no matter what they're facing. From meeting their favorite athlete or performer, to taking a long-awaited family trip, to receiving a custom experience built just for them, our dreams are designed to lift spirits and remind these incredible kids that they are seen, loved, and supported by an entire community standing behind them.
What to Expect at the Game
This is a full afternoon of family-friendly fun at the ballpark. Whether you're a lifelong Cyclones fan, a casual baseball lover, or simply looking for a meaningful summer outing, you'll find something to cheer about. Expect:
- A full nine innings of professional baseball as the Brooklyn Cyclones take on the Jersey Shore BlueClaws
- On-field recognition for Dream Factory of Brooklyn and the children and families we serve
- Classic Maimonides Park ballpark food, drinks, and concessions
- Family-friendly activities and entertainment throughout the day
- Stunning views of Coney Island, the boardwalk, and the Atlantic Ocean
- A chance to connect with fellow community members who care about making a difference
Why Your Attendance Matters
When you buy a ticket, you're not just securing a seat at the ballpark - you're helping grant a dream. Funds raised through this annual charity game go directly toward our dream-granting program, supporting the children of Brooklyn who need it most. Many of these children are battling serious illnesses, undergoing extensive treatment, or facing daily challenges that no child should have to face. Your ticket helps deliver moments of joy, normalcy, and celebration into their lives.
Beyond the dreams themselves, your support helps Dream Factory of Brooklyn continue to grow our reach within the borough, expand our volunteer base, and build lasting partnerships with hospitals, schools, and community organizations that connect us with families in need.
Bring Your Group
This event is perfect for:
- Families looking for a memorable summer day out
- Friends, coworkers, and team-building outings
- Brooklyn locals who want to support a hometown cause
- Baseball fans of all ages
- Anyone looking to combine entertainment with impact
Getting There
Maimonides Park is located at 1904 Surf Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11224, in the heart of Coney Island. The ballpark is incredibly easy to reach by public transportation - the D, F, N, and Q trains all stop at Coney Island-Stillwell Avenue, just one block from the stadium. Multiple MTA bus routes also serve the area, including the B36, B64, B68, B74, and B82.
For those driving, parking is available in the surrounding Coney Island area. Plan to arrive early to enjoy the boardwalk, grab a bite, and take in the atmosphere before first pitch.
Make It a Day
Coney Island is one of New York City's most legendary destinations. Make a full day of it - visit Luna Park, ride the Cyclone roller coaster, walk the historic boardwalk, stop for a Nathan's Famous hot dog, or dip your toes in the Atlantic. The Cyclones game is the perfect anchor for a memorable Brooklyn summer Sunday.
Join Us
Whether you come solo, bring the whole family, or organize a group from work, your presence makes a difference. Together, we can fill Maimonides Park with energy, generosity, and hope - and grant more dreams for the children of Brooklyn.
We can't wait to see you at the ballpark.
