| We’ve opened up pre-sales for the special Cafe Hoshi calendar benefiting ASPCA of Sacramento, Weave, and My Sister’s House charities.
A limited amount of these 16 month calendars (September 2012-December 2013) will be available at the summer convention, but you can pre-order yours now to guarantee you’ll get one before they sell out! |

Reserve Your Cafe Hoshi Charity Calendar!
January 24th, 2012
VIP and Early Bird Registration is Not Yet Open.
January 22nd, 2012We’ve received several emails from those of you who are trying to book your Early Bird rooms for the summer convention, and running into technical problems with booking.
The Woodlake hotel has not yet sent us the correct booking link for SacAnime summer, and their reservation website is still under construction. Please hold off on attempting to book your room for VIP Upgrades at this time, as we will have a special form posted for you soon.
If you have already booked a room, please check back here in the next few weeks, as we will have additional instructions. (Keep all of your reservation info handy!)
Thank you for your patience!
Manga Contest Winners Posted
January 20th, 2012If you didn’t have a chance to meet the talented 1st and 2nd Place winners for the SacAnime Winter 2012 Manga Contest at the convention, you can still go read their entries, along with those of our other great participants, on the manga contest page!
AMV Contest Extra Deadline!
January 9th, 2012Due to some last minute cancellations, several spots have opened up in the AMV Contest. We’re reopened submissions, but they will only be up until Wednesday at Midnight! If you weren’t able to enter your video before the December 5th deadline, now is your chance!
Radisson Hotel is now Woodlake Hotel!
December 31st, 2011
Effective January 1st, 2012, the Radisson Hotel is changing its name to The Woodlake Hotel. All room reservations are still the same, and it’s still the same hotel, they’re just changing names.
So don’t panic when you arrive for the convention if there’s a new sign on the door; you’re in the right place!

Tournament Schedule for Video Game Room Posted
December 14th, 2011The gaming room staff has finished the schedule for tournaments to be held at SacAnime this January. The complete list can be found here: Console Tournament Schedule
The final schedule may be subject to change depending on the number of entries. Make sure to check by the game room for more information during the convention.
Now Open: Masquerade Registration, Lolita Morning Tea, and Cafe Hoshi!
December 1st, 2011| We’re only a little more than a month away from the show, and time is running out to plan your convention weekend! Registration for the Cosplay Masquerade is now open, and we will be taking the first 30 entries before December 30th.
You can now also purchase your tickets for the Lolita Morning Tea event on Sunday. We are limiting the guest list to only 40 people this year, so don’t delay. |

Also, in response to feedback from last Summer’s show, the staff of Cafe Hoshi have not only diversified their menus, but also added additional showtimes to give you more chances to enjoy this unique maid cafe experience.
Last time, all of their shows sold out within minutes of the doors opening, so we highly recommend you pre-purchase your tickets online. We can’t guarantee there will be any tickets left at the show itself, and seating is very limited. |

November 2nd, 2011| We are now accepting submissions for panels, workshops, and demonstrations for this January’s show. Programming spaces are limited, and all submissions must be received by December 1st in order to be considered. However, please take your time when filling out the submission form.
