The franchise is celebrating its "anniversary year" from 2023, the 20th anniversary of the original manga, until 2026, the 20th anniversary of the TV anime.
As part of the festivities, a live music event focusing on the anime's incidental music will be held on February 11, 2024, at Tokyo's Zepp DiverCity. Titled "Gintama Sound Ultra Soul! '24," it was originally planned for 2020 but was postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
