Attention all Artists! We are extending the Mascot Contest deadline to April 10th. Why? Because we don’t have as many Mascots as we need to have a proper contest, in fact, submissions are at about 1/3 of what we normally have before the convention.

All valuables, such as ID and electronics, turned into the Lost and Found were turned over to the Washington State Convention Center. For more information please contact WSCC Security at 206-694-5127.

Come visit the Charity Auction! All proceeds benefit the Make-a-Wish Foundation to help make wishes come true. We have many items up for bidding, with more coming in as the weekend progresses. Autographed memorabilia signed by your favorite guests, original art by acclaimed manga creators, and much more!

Join us for the world premier of the first 2 episodes of the latest series from Trigger, the studio that brought you Kill la Kill. There will be a panel with Kiznaiver voice actors Yuki Kaji and Hibiku Yamaura streaming LIVE from Japan following the premiere!

Please join us to help save lives! Our goal is 70 donors each day and appointments are short of that goal at this time. Sakura-Con will be giving donors a free hawk plush (as supplies last). Manga Library will also have manga on hand.
