Eiichiro Oda’s One Piece is a huge Weekly Shonen Jump manga that is still kicking today. Recently, they announced their annual celebration One Piece Day 2024. But, unlike the other years, they pull the convention day aside from the usual July 22.
So, what is the reason for the change of dates? What’s so special about One Piece Day this year? Read on!
One Piece Day 2024
The official of One Piece announced the One Piece Day 2024 convention on their X (formerly Twitter) account. This year, the festival will be held at Makuhari Messe Chiba on August 10 – 11, 2024. Unfortunately, the official hasn’t disclosed further information about the festival.
Looking at two years back, we can place a few predictions on what One Piece Day 2024 has in store. For one, the straw hats crew just entered the new Egghead Island Arc. It means this is the best time to insert a film between post-Wano and pre-Egghead Island. For the record, this year, One Piece also celebrated its 25-year anniversary. So, we can expect something big coming.

So, how can we get access to the festival? Well, looking at the previous events, the tickets were available via the lottery system and announced online. But, for those who aren’t lucky, the event was also live-streamed on YouTube with English subtitles. Unfortunately, One Piece Day 2024 tickets are not yet available.
