The 101st Centennial New York Baseball Writers’ Dinner will be held on

Saturday, January 24, 2026.

The Dinner will feature many of the game’s biggest stars

PLUS

The 40th anniversary of the World Champion 1986 Mets!

As always, we strongly recommend reserving seats as early as possible because we anticipate another sellout.

As you know, there is no other tradition in sports like the New York Baseball Writers’ Dinner! Where else can you see MLB’s Most Valuable Players, the Cy Young winners, the Jackie Robinson Rookies of the Year, and Managers of the Year winners from each league?!

And not to be outdone, the New York BBWAA chapter will also present a very special roster of chapter awards.

We look forward to seeing you, then!
