SacAnime fans love to dress up, and when they come out in force, there’s no shortage of awe-inspiring costumes.

For those who love people-watching, any SacAnime gathering becomes a star-studded event. Recent instalments show that it’s smart to get in line early for tickets. Expect a bevy of vendors selling books, costumes, comics, media, and much more.

Special guests for Roseville’s upcoming gala include actor/voice-over personality Jessie James Grelle (‘My Hero Academia,’ ‘Attack on Titan,’ ‘Yuri on Ice’), voice actress Jamie Marchi (‘Fairy Tail,’ ‘Dragon Ball Super’), Felician Angelle (‘Dr. Stone,’ ‘Genshin Impact’), and Jad Saxton (‘Food Wars,’ ‘Fire Force’).

Attendees should keep in mind that food lines are often long, and vendors prefer cash over credit cards. Visit www.sacanime.com for full exhibitor list. Tickets to the event are available at door, with the Friday and Sunday prices being $20 and Saturday being $25. Full weekend passes are $35. Children under 11-years-old are free. Doors open at noon on Friday and 10 a.m. on Saturday and Sunday. The Roebellen Center is located in Roseville at 700 Event Center Drive.
