Celebration of Life for Peter Seidler

*With rain in the forecast for Saturday afternoon, the Celebration of Life will now begin two hours earlier at 11 AM.*

The San Diego Padres will honor their beloved former Chairman and Owner, Peter Seidler, with a celebration of life ceremony at Petco Park on Saturday, March 23 at 11 AM PT. The team will also wear a “PS” jersey patch in Seidler’s memory during the entirety of the 2024 regular season.

Current and former Padres, team and league executives, local dignitaries, family members and special guest speakers will be in attendance for the celebration of life with Padres broadcaster Don Orsillo serving as Master of Ceremonies.

Gates will open at 10 AM and seating will be available on a first-come, first-served basis. Parking is free of charge and will be available in neighboring Padres-controlled lots, including the Tailgate Lot and Padres Parkade.

The first 10,000 fans at the celebration of life will receive a complimentary jersey patch, and the patch will be available for sale at the Padres Team Store at Petco Park this season with the net proceeds benefiting the Padres Foundation.
