This summer, Mario, Luigi, BowserJr. (for the first time) and others are making a splash with the Super Mario Power-Up Summer stage show at Universal Studios Japan.
Super Mario Power-Up Summer
The show takes place at Gramercy Park in the New York area, where Mario, Luigi, and Peach have burst out of Super Nintendo World to celebrate the summer with guests.
This performance involves plenty of guest participation and lots of fun with the pals from the Mushroom Kingdom, but it all comes crashing down when Bowser, Jr. decides to wreck the party!
Tons of gallons of water will splash on guests from the stage and all around the viewing area to keep you cool during the hot, humid Osaka summer.

Super Mario Power-Up Summer, part of NO LIMIT! Summer, is running from July 5 to August 24, 2023.
Guests can also purchase a special water shooter to Power-Up their own interactivity with friends and other guests. Please note: the water shooter can only be used during the show, it can be filled up at three locations around the stage area, and costs ¥3500 ($24).
Meanwhile, as is tradition every year, the One Piece Premier Show will return to the Waterworld arena this summer. From July 5 to October 10, fans of the classic Shonen Jump manga and anime series can join their favorite Straw Hat Pirates in another new adventure. This year’s story features Luffy and the gang saving three princesses framed for committing a heinous crime in their home country. Can Luffy and the gang save them before it’s too late?
