The Los Angeles Dodgers are gearing up for a One Piece Night on Thursday, July 3, when they face off against the Chicago White Sox at 7:10 p.m. at Dodger Stadium.
Straw Hats for the First 40K Fans
In a clever nod to Monkey D. Luffy, the super-energetic Straw Hat protagonist from One Piece, the Dodgers will be giving away co-branded straw hats—replicas of Luffy’s signature headgear—to the first 40,000 ticketed fans as they enter the stadium.
Exclusive Luffy Card + In-Stadium Activations
Attendees will also receive a limited-edition One Piece Card Game promo card featuring original artwork by Eiichiro Oda, distributed at special activation zones throughout the stadium.
Interactive attractions—including photo booths, character appearances, and surprise touches—will transform Dodger Stadium into a pirate paradise.
Following the final pitch, the evening will culminate in a magical drone show, lighting up the night sky with aerial formations of favorite One Piece characters—delivering an exhilarating end to an already action-packed night.
Lon Rosen, Dodgers EVP & CMO said, “It’s great to showcase ONE PIECE, one of the most popular franchises in the world, to the best fan base in the world.”
Lisa Yamatoya, Senior Marketing Director at Toei Animation added, “We invite fans to join us for ONE PIECE Night, which will offer a truly memorable, one‑of‑a‑kind entertainment experience…”
This marks One Piece’s third major-sports partnership in Los Angeles, following collaborations with the LA Rams in 2023 and the Lakers in 2024. The July 3 event continues the franchise’s strategy of engaging fans through dynamic, cross-cultural events. The timing also taps into the momentum generated by the live-action and manga hype cycle in the U.S.
