Taiyou Con is a family friendly 3-day anime convention and Japanese festival at the Mesa Convention Center! We are an introductory to all things Asian pop culture – anime, cosplay, video games, K-Pop, Asian food trucks, and much more with over 300 hours of interactive activities just for YOU.
We started out as an event for people that needed a place to share their common interests with each other. Our first event took place 15 years ago at a school with no admission cost and lasted only a total of eight hours. Now, our event is much bigger and strive to introduce more people to this community by making it easy and affordable, but our mission remains the same… help people make awesome memories with each other.
