History

[edit]

SacAnime began as an extension of the quarterly Sacramento Comic, Toy and Anime Show (Sac-Con).[4] The convention was originally known as the Sacramento Anime & Manga Show and became a semi-annual event in 2005.[7] Due to the summer convention's growth, it moved to the Sacramento Convention Center in 2013.[5] The Winter 2013 show was also moved to the Sacramento Convention Center.[8] The Summer 2013 event shared the Sacramento Convention Center with the Sacramento Greek Festival, and with the convention badge attendees could enter festival for free.[9] The convention expanded into additional space in the Sacramento Convention Center, along with holding some events in the Sheraton Grand Sacramento Hotel. The Winter 2014 convention continued to utilize space in the Sheraton Grand.[10] A marriage proposal occurred during the costume contest. Sac-Anime Winter 2016 was the first year they used all exhibit halls at the Sacramento Convention Center.[11] Prop guns were banned at the Summer 2017 convention.[12] SacAnime Summer in 2019 will be moving from September to June.[13]

SacAnime in 2020 moved to Cal Expo due to renovations occurring at the Sacramento Convention Center.[14][15] SacAnime Summer 2020 was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[16][17] SacAnime Winter 2021 was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the Sacramento Convention Center not being available.[18][19] The convention returned to the SAFE Credit Union Convention Center in September 2021, after the venue received $180 million in renovations.[20] They also had a mask mandate.[21] The January 2022 event had COVID-19 protocols and on-site testing.[22]

SacAnime Swap Meet

[edit]

SacAnime Swap Meets were events held at the Placer Valley Event Center in Roseville, California. September's Swap Meet was also known as the Roseville Comic-Con.[78] The January 2021 event was postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[79][80] The April 2021 event occurred under controversial circumstances.[81] Placer County's COVID-19 vaccination center at the Swap Meet's venue closed for the event.[80] The vaccination center traditionally didn't operate over weekends and SacAnime offered to adjust its needed space, which ended up not being necessary.[78][81] SacAnime had mask and social distancing rules during the event, which was branded as a swap meet with only vendors.[78][82] Issues during the event included a lack of social distancing, poor mask enforcement, and no hand sanitizing dispensers in the event space.[83]
