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

Programming

[edit]

The convention typically offers an artists’ alley, card game tournaments, cosplay contest, dealer's room, and a swap meet.[4][5][6]

History

[edit]

The convention began due to the requests of fans from the Bakersfield Comic Con.[7][8] Bak-Anime in winter 2013 moved to the Bakersfield Marriott due to growth and for the fall 2013 event expanded to two days.[1][7][8] 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.[9][10] The 2019 event occupied two of the Kern County Fairgrounds buildings.[6] Bak-Anime 2020 was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[11][12] Bak-Anime 2021 was also cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[13][14]
