About

Shakespeare Pub Quiz Nights run every Thursday at 7 PM at the Shakespeare Pub & Grille in Mission Hills — San Diego's most consistent and longest-running pub quiz, drawing teams of up to six for a competitive general knowledge trivia night with themed rounds, cash prizes, and the kind of regular crowd that has been coming long enough to develop real rivalries.

The format is structured: multiple rounds of general knowledge questions with themed rounds mixed in throughout the night. The host keeps the pace moving, the scoring is honest, and the prizes at the end are real — gift cards for first and second place, and the kind of bragging rights that a regular pub quiz crowd actually respects. Sign-ups start at 6 PM; the quiz kicks off at 7 PM sharp. Teams of one to six people.

Shakespeare Pub & Grille, 3701 India St, San Diego, CA 92103. Mission Hills neighborhood, just north of Little Italy. Street parking on India St and surrounding streets. Free to play — just show up with your team. Prizes for first and second place. The regulars arrive early and take the same tables every week, which tells you something about what kind of room this is.

Anime Expo 2026 — Day 3

In 2 days · Jul 4 From $65 Los Angeles Convention Center, 120…

Day 3 at Anime Expo is when the convention becomes itself. Saturday, July 4, 2026 at the Los Angeles Convention Center — the highest-attendance day of the largest anime convention in North America. Over 100,000 fans across the floor, programming running in every corner of the building, the cosplay competition at full force. This year, Day 3 carries weight for two fandoms simultaneously. The BLEACH: Thousand-Year Blood War — The Calamity panel takes place Saturday morning at Crypto.com Arena, with Japanese VA Masakazu Morita and English voice director Johnny Yong Bosch present. And in the afternoon (2:45–4:05 PM, JW Diamond room), Science SARU presents the North American premiere panel for Ghost in the Shell 2026 — the first new entry in the franchise in over a decade, premiering on streaming July 7. This is a rare convergence: two landmark franchise events, one day, one convention. Beyond the main panels: the Artist Alley is at its most densely packed, exclusives sell out by early afternoon, and the spontaneous meetups — people who found each other because of a shared series, a specific cosplay, a niche fandom — run into the night. Plan for crowds at the main entrances by midmorning. General admission and day badges available. The Saturday ticket moves fastest.

Little Tokyo Anime and Culture Night -- Los Angeles July 2026

In 9 days · Jul 11 327 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 with dedicated anime merchandise, Kinokuniya Books, and coffee shops where people sit for hours discussing shows. The monthly Anime and Culture Night draws the community that lives here year-round, not just the convention crowd that shows up twice a year. Street performers, pop-up cosplay groups, and informal meetups fill the sidewalks from early evening into the night. Browse Anime Jungle for figures, tapestries, and limited releases. Kinokuniya carries Japanese-language manga, artbooks, and music releases alongside English-language anime. The ramen spots fill up fast. Arriving by 6:30pm avoids the longest waits at Ichiran, Daikokuya, and Shin-Sen-Gumi. The Metro Gold Line stops at Little Tokyo/Arts District station. Street parking is available on surrounding blocks. No ticket or registration required. Monthly on the second Saturday.

Sonicboombox Anime XP Afterparty 2026 — Anime Expo Weekend

In 2 days · Jul 4 – Jul 5 TBA Catch One, 4067 West Pico Boulevar…

Anime Expo weekend doesn't end when the convention floor closes. Sonicboombox throws the biggest AX afterparty of the year on July 4 at Catch One — and you don't need an Anime Expo badge to get in. Five rooms. Two floors. A massive outdoor patio. DJs spinning anime-adjacent music across hip-hop, trap, pop, EDM, and emo — Anime Nightclub 3, DJ Taylor Senpai, and a full lineup that treats anime soundtracks like the bangers they are. There's also a game room with Beyblades, a photobooth with printed photos, and the kind of crowd that has the right opinion about the Chainsaw Man opening. Presented by Girltaku, Newtown HQ, and Kaiju Jukebox — organizers who have run Anime Expo adjacent events for years and know exactly what this crowd wants on a Saturday night in July. Catch One is one of the best venues in Los Angeles: legendary sound system, multiple rooms, and enough space that it never feels like a sweaty anime convention overflow. It's more like the after-party that's actually better than the main event. July 4 also happens to be Independence Day. The Anime Expo crowd treats this as its own national holiday — cosplay optional, enthusiasm mandatory. Doors open at 8:30 PM and the night runs until 2 AM. 21+ only. Rideshare recommended. Located on West Pico Boulevard in Los Angeles. This is the Anime Expo afterparty the community has been running to for years. If you're in LA for AX weekend, this is the Saturday night plan.

Anime Expo 2026 — Day 2

Tomorrow · Jul 3 From $65 Los Angeles Convention Center, 120…

Anime Expo 2026 — Day 2 continues Friday, July 3 at the Los Angeles Convention Center. Anime Expo is the largest anime convention in North America, drawing over 100,000 fans to the Los Angeles Convention Center each summer. The 2026 edition runs July 2-5 across all four days, with a massive 340,000-square-foot Exhibit Hall, Artist Alley, J-Pop and ani-song concerts, industry panels, anime premieres, cosplay competitions, autograph sessions, and gaming areas. The convention is organized by the Society for the Promotion of Japanese Animation and runs continuously across all four days. Each day brings different programming, exclusive announcements, and guests from across the anime, manga, and J-Pop industries. Saturday and Sunday draw the largest crowds; Thursday and Friday move at a more manageable pace for exhibit hall access. The Los Angeles Convention Center is located at 1201 S Figueroa St, Los Angeles, CA 90015, steps from the EXPO/Convention Center Metro station. Badge pickup opens before the convention; pick yours up early to avoid lines. Tickets are available at anime-expo.org. Single-day and four-day badges are offered, with four-day badges providing the best value for full-weekend attendees.

Essence Festival of Culture 2026 — New Orleans, LA

Tomorrow · Jul 3 – Jul 6 From $125 Caesars Superdome, 1500 Sugar Bowl…

Since 1995, New Orleans in July has belonged to Essence. What began as a magazine's anniversary celebration grew into the largest Black cultural gathering in America — four days of music, empowerment, and community in the Superdome and surrounding venues. Walking into Essence is like stepping into the fullest expression of Black joy — unapologetic, electric, and communal in a way no other festival replicates. The Superdome concerts run each evening with world-class production. But Essence is more than its headline performances. By day, the Ernest N. Morial Convention Center hosts the Essence Experience — free admission panels, beauty activations, wellness summits, and brand activations that feel like a living magazine. The energy peaks on Saturday night when the Superdome roars. First-timers are consistently overwhelmed by the scale. Veterans treat it like a homecoming reunion, seeing people they haven't encountered in a year and building new connections that last beyond the weekend. If you feel something when you hear Patti LaBelle or watch Cardi B perform — if Black excellence and culture are not just things you observe but things you live — Essence Festival of Culture is worth the flight, the hotel, and every dollar. Weekend packages start at $223.50. New Orleans in July is hot and humid; that is non-negotiable. But the city amplifies the festival's energy: the food, the second-line parades, the jazz clubs, and the neighborhood culture all extend the experience well beyond the Superdome doors. This is not for someone looking for a general summer music festival. It is for people who want to feel seen, celebrated, and surrounded by something larger than themselves. Book your hotel the moment tickets go on sale — New Orleans fills up fast and prices triple during Essence weekend. The daytime Experience at the Convention Center is free and worth attending even if you skip the evening concerts; some of the most meaningful conversations and panels happen there. Wear light, breathable clothing — heat index regularly hits 105°F. Bring a portable fan and stay hydrated throughout the day. Pre-purchase breakfast to avoid festival-weekend restaurant waits. If it is your first time: the Superdome floor is worth the upgrade. The production is massive and the sound hits differently down there. Arrive early to the evening shows — doors open an hour before curtain and the walk from the Convention Center to the Superdome takes longer than it looks on the map. Essence Festival of Culture was born in 1995 as a one-time celebration of Essence Magazine's 25th anniversary. It never stopped. Today it is both a music festival and a civic institution — a space where Black America gathers to celebrate, debate, mourn, laugh, and look forward together. When you know that Essence exists, and what it represents, you understand something about American culture that does not appear in mainstream music coverage. The festival is one of the most culturally significant recurring gatherings in the United States — not because of the ticket price or the headliners, but because of what it means to be in that room. Tickets available on Ticketmaster. July 3–5, 2026. Caesars Superdome, New Orleans, Louisiana.

Sukeban World Championship Fight Night — Anime Expo 2026

Tomorrow · Jul 3 51.6 Los Angeles Convention Center, 120…

This is not a wrestling show with an anime theme. It is a convergence: Harajuku fashion aesthetics, anime character energy, live music, and genuine athletic competition fused into one arena experience. Sukeban is Japan's premier female pro wrestling league — and its first-ever World Championship Fight arrives at Anime Expo 2026 on July 3rd at the Los Angeles Convention Center. The league brings rival girl gangs from Tokyo — the Harajuku Stars, Cherry Bomb Girls, and Vandals stables — fighting for a championship belt on the biggest stage in the league's history. Special appearances confirmed. Every match is a story arc. Every outfit is a character declaration. The room this fills: anime fans who also watch wrestling. Sneakerheads who follow Harajuku drops. AEW and WWE fans who've been waiting for something that hits different — aesthetically, athletically, culturally. Sukeban occupies an intersection no other event touches: J-fashion, pro wrestling, anime convention, live performance. Ticketed separately from AX general admission to keep the room committed. Entry requirements: valid Anime Expo credential (4-day or any 1-day pass) plus a separate Sukeban event ticket. GA Floor (standing): $51.60. Balcony A (seated): $101.60. VIP Ringside: $151.60. Tickets at leapevents.com — limited capacity.

Anime XP 2026 Afterparty — Los Angeles

In 2 days · Jul 4 – Jul 5 Catch One, 4067 W Pico Blvd, Los A…

The convention floor closes. The night doesn’t. Every year, Sonicboombox has turned what should be the last night of Anime Expo into something the official schedule doesn’t list — a proper nightclub night for the people who stayed too long and still aren’t done. Anime XP Afterparty 2026 returns to Catch One, a two-floor, three-stage venue on West Pico Blvd in Los Angeles. Seven bars. A full game room that takes Beyblades seriously. Outdoor patio. And six anime DJs who treat the playlist like it matters, because it does. The lineup: Taylor Senpai, Dimi, Johnny Romer, DJ French, Beari, Foureyes. From 8:30 PM to 2:00 AM, the music runs through anime OSTs, J-pop, and electronic — whatever connects to the cultural moment that just spent four days filling the convention center. This is the exhale at the end of AX weekend. Catch One, 4067 W Pico Blvd, Los Angeles. 21+ with valid ID. July 4, 2026. Doors at 8:30 PM. $25 in advance, $40 at the door.
