About San Japan
San Japan is the Largest Anime & Gaming Convention in the South Texas Region. We take place at the Henry B. Gonzalez Convention Center and San Antonio Grand Hyatt in downtown San Antonio on Labor Day Weekend. San Japan is a fan-run organization providing an annual anime-focused convention.
Being located in downtown San Antonio, there are plenty of tourist locations, places to see, things to do, as well as great places to eat.

We encourage everyone to enjoy what San Japan and the city of San Antonio has to offer!
