Anime Expo 2025 badge registration and hotel block go live on January 21
If you’re looking for badges to this summer’s Anime Expo, you’ll be able to grab them shortly.
Four-day and single-day badge registration for the popular anime convention will go live on January 21 here. Children ages 5 and under will be able to attend for free with an accompanying adult. Badges will begin shipping in the United States and Canada in May. International attendees must pick up their badges at the convention. The hotel block will also go live that same day. Hotel rooms for Anime Expo go quickly, so be sure to grab yours before they’re gone.
Anime Expo will take place at the Los Angeles Convention Center from July 3 through July 6. A handful of applications for those looking to be part of the convention are live on the Anime Expo website right now here.
