Anime North - 2026 Halloween Event

Anime North’s annual Halloween Event returns Friday, October 23, 2026 at the Japanese Canadian Cultural Centre at 6 Sakura Way, Toronto, from 6PM - 11PM.

The event will consist of an Artist Alley, a Nominichi (flea market), gaming (video and tabletop), some commercial vendors, Idol stage events and of course costumes galore. A schedule of our Idol and some other events will be posted closer to the event.

Admissions for the event must be purchase in advance and will be $7+fees. Sales open Monday, October 5.

Due to the popularity of this event, tickets will be sold in timed entry blocks to reduce crowding and better manage lineups.  Entry times will be 6 PM, 7 PM, and 8:30 PM. There will be separate lines for each entry time. While you can come later than your entry time you cannot come earlier. People who come at 6 or 7 PM are NOT required to leave before the event ends, you can stay all night if you wish.

If a block sells out, no more tickets will be avai
