Sign-Ups must be done via the ANX Discord Server, and spots are limited. Specifics and guidelines can be found there as well.

Live Concerts – SacLive Stage

The SacLive Stage, located right in the center of the second floor, is home to the SacAnime Concert series, featuring performers from all your favorite fan-fueled genres. Please see the program guide for concert schedule.

Starlight Ball – Saturday Only

Whip out your fanciest clothes or formal cosplay, and dance the night away at the Starlight Ball. More of a “Geek Prom” than a formal ball, this event features music from your favorite games, anime, and pop-culture entertainment, remixed into smooth tunes by SacAnime DJs. There is no strict dress code, but formal dress or formal versions of cosplays are encouraged – our Starlight Ball staff will be handing out prizes throughout the evening!

This is a ticketed event, and VIP Pass holders will receive a discount. Tickets will go on sale directly outside the Starlight Ball one hour before it opens.

Performance Application

If you represent a singer, band, or a dance troupe, please use the SacLive Performer Application to get in contact with us.

Please keep the genre and atmosphere of the convention in mind when submitting inquiries, as we are most interested in performances that mesh well with the SacAnime image.
