The recent discovery of the first non-trivial dibaryon, the $d^*(2380)$, provides a new candidate for an exotic degree of freedom in the nuclear equation of state at high matter densities. In this paper a first calculation of the role of the $d^*(2380)$ in neutron stars is performed, based on a relativistic mean field description of the nucleonic degrees of freedom supplemented by a free boson gas of $d^*(2380)$.
