The Sacramento Comic, Toy and Anime Show (SAC-CON) was born on July 1, 1986 at the Sierra Inn (now the Ramada Inn) on Auburn Blvd.

The show had no guests, a little over a dozen vendors tables and less than 200 attendees.

Since then we’ve moved to the Scottish Rite Center (where we’ve been for over 15 years – and utilize every single amount of space that we possibly can), have well over 100 vendor tables, and usually host some pretty cool guests.

On March 1, 2015, we moved to the McClellan Conference Center, then the Sacramento Convention Center in 2018. In 2019, due the the Sacramento Convention Center remodel closure, we moved to Cal Expo for one event. Then Covid hit and all shows were shut down. On March 13, 2022 we will be returning to the Sacramento Convention Center, our first Comic-Con since 2019.

What began as a typical comic book convention has evolved into a mixture of comics, toys, anime and all things dealing with pop culture entertainment.

Our philosophy is and always will be to provide fun, safe, family oriented entertainment for a reasonable price. Where else can you go to get an entire day’s worth of entertainment for only $10.00?
