Set at ICONSIAM, the “One Piece” Pop‑Up Café Thailand 2026 runs from Mar. 12 to Oct. 31, 2026, occupying the Attraction Hall on the 6th floor. The venue is fully transformed into a pirate‑themed environment inspired by the adventures and locations seen in “One Piece.”

Visitors can explore a range of immersive zones inspired by iconic islands, designed to bring the anime’s world to life through visual storytelling and interactive elements. The café also offers character‑inspired dishes and drinks, allowing guests to experience themed dining alongside the visual installations.

One of the main attractions is a stamp‑collecting activity spread across 10 different areas within the pop‑up. Completing the challenge may grant access to a limited‑edition premium reward, created specifically for the event and available only on‑site.

The pop‑up café builds on Bangkok’s past “One Piece”‑themed events, offering fans another opportunity to engage with the franchise in a dedicated, themed setting. Designed as a casual yet immersive experience, the café caters to anime enthusiasts seeking collectibles, themed dining, and photo‑ready moments in one location.
