K-PLAY! FEST Orange County returns to the Anaheim Convention Center on August 22-23, 2026. GA concert passes start at $40. This two-day K-pop and K-culture festival is the largest dedicated K-pop fan event in SoCal, combining live concerts, fan meetups, K-pop dance competitions, K-beauty booths, and K-drama screenings under one roof. The concert stage features performances from touring K-pop acts across both days. The festival floor runs simultaneously -- featuring official merchandise drops, signed album opportunities, fan photo areas, and artist Q&A sessions.

Dandadan Season 2 picks up where one of the most chaotic, tender, genuinely funny anime in recent memory left off — Okarun, Momo, and the supernatural nonsense that keeps pulling them back toward each other. Nerd Bar San Diego is screening the Season 2 premiere with the crowd that was already texting about it before the opening song ends. The show that proved shonen could be weird and still hit you right in the chest.

Little Tokyo Anime and Culture Night — Los Angeles Coming Soon 8 days away
Little Tokyo Anime and Culture Night — Los Angeles
In 9 days · May 9 327 E 2nd St, Los Angeles, CA 90012

Little Tokyo in downtown Los Angeles is the oldest Japanese American community in the country, and on weekend evenings it functions as the unofficial gathering point for LA-area anime and Japanese culture fans. The stretch of 1st and 2nd Street between Central and Alameda runs izakayas, ramen shops, Anime Jungle (dedicated anime merchandise), Kinokuniya (Japanese bookstore), and coffee shops where people sit for hours discussing shows. The community events here are not always formally announced — they form around new episode drops, convention previews, and whatever the regulars decide to gather around. Watch parties happen in restaurant back rooms. Group cosplay meetups stage here before heading downtown. The Weller Court plaza hosts informal gatherings on summer evenings that draw people from across LA. If you are looking for the anime community in Los Angeles, this is where it physically lives. First and second Saturday evenings are the densest nights. Kinokuniya closes at 8pm; Daikokuya ramen runs a line until midnight. Free entry to the neighborhood. Metro Gold Line stops at Little Tokyo/Arts District station — no car needed. Parking in the Weller Court lot if you drive.
