Bak-Anime is an annual two-day anime convention held at the Bakersfield Marriott at the Convention Center in Bakersfield, California by the staff of Sac-Anime.[3] The convention is the sister conventions to the Bakersfield Comic Con, Sacramento Comic, Toy and Anime Show (Sac-Con), and Sac-Anime.

Programming

The convention typically offers anime screenings, art contest, artists alley, card gaming tournaments, concerts, cosplay masquerade, dance, karaoke, panels, swap meet, tabletop gaming, video gaming, and vendors.[1][4][5][6]

History

The convention began due to the requests of fans from the Bakersfield Comic Con.[4][7] Bak-Anime in winter 2013 moved to the Bakersfield Marriott due to growth and for the fall 2013 event expanded to two days.[1][4][7] The expansion in the fall was considered a risk due to the increased costs of events run at that time of the year.[1] The convention returned to one day in June 2014, and re-expanded to two days in January 2015.[5][8]
