One Piece Night is returning at Dodger Stadium this summer.
The Dodgers announced they will host One Piece Night on July 2, when they host the Padres.
The first 40,000 in attendance are eligible to receive a One Piece straw hat as a promotional item ahead of the game.
Tickets have skyrocketed in price; the cheapest seat at UNIQLO Field at Dodger Stadium is $157, while the most expensive seat is going for $2,337 (as of Wednesday).
Last season, One Piece Night was among the most popular promotions at Dodger Stadium. The first 40,000 who showed up received a co-branded straw hat, as well as a trading card of the show’s main character, Monkey D. Luffy.
One Piece Night is scheduled the same day that Anime Expo begins at the Los Angeles Convention Center.
The convention is considered one of the biggest events of the summer in Los Angeles; more than 410,000 from 65 different countries attended last year’s convention.
One Piece is considered one of the best-selling manga series of all time after it was created by Eiichiro Oda in 1997.
In 1999, One Piece went from books to the television screen, and it is an anime series that is still on the air today, with 22 seasons.
In 2023, a live-action version of the show was created as a direct-to-streaming show on Netflix. So far, the live version of the show has premiered two seasons, while a highly anticipated third season is set to come out in 2027.
