|style="text-align:left" rowspan=5|December 8th-15th, 2018||{{Trn|Open Arena}}||141||{{Sm|MK~IoRi|Chile}}||style="text-align:left" rowspan=5|Being held on the same day, these five tournaments tied for the first ''Ultimate'' tournament to reach 100 entrants. Note that while NEW GAME PLUS started on December 7th, ''Ultimate'' singles started on December 8th. This is also by far the fastest a Smash game has had a tournament with 100 entrants or more post-release, only a day after its launch on December 7th, 2018. Although [[EVO 2015]] and [[EVO 2016]] broke entrant records simultaneously in different games, this is the first time a record has been held on the same day within one game.

Don't Park on the Grass 2018 was one of the first national ''Ultimate'' tournaments. With Umebura SP the following day, or because of Don't Park on the Grass 2018's and Umebura SP's ''Ultimate'' singles starting eight and a half hours apart due to time zones, this is the shortest time a tournament has held the record for the largest Smash tournament out of any game.
