Anime Impulse

Anime Impulse started in 2016 as a Southern California anime event and has become a three-city tour. Its 2027 schedule opens with the Los Angeles stop on January 16–17 at the Fairplex in Pomona, followed by the Bay Area in July and Orange County in September.

Each stop is a two-day weekend with vendors, Artist Alley, guests, gaming and cosplay meetups. Some editions share the grounds with other Impulse Universe events, and a general admission ticket only covers the events listed on that city's ticket page.

Real weapons are banned, and bags and cosplay props may be inspected at the door. Guests with access requirements can use a reserved area at the main stage and are asked to send accommodation requests at least two weeks ahead.
