About StocktonCon

The goal of StocktonCon is to raise awareness of outstanding artists in the San Joaquin Valley area  and to give attendees the chance to experience a wide variety of popular culture (comics, card games, video games,  anime, manga, science fiction, toys, television and movies). It is also StocktonCon’s intention to raise awareness and funds in conjunction with the local charities.

StocktonCon is at the Adventist Health Arena located at 248 W Fremont St, Stockton, CA. For more information regarding Adventist Health Arena please visit http://www.stocktonlive.com/plan-your-visit/faqs.

Absolutely. We would love to see you dressed up as your favorite character. Please understand that StocktonCon is a family event, so please keep that in mind when putting together your costume.

StocktonCon encourages fans to cosplay as their favorite pop culture icons! For everyone’s safety and for a relaxing event, here are some cosplay guidelines.

1. No real firearms. That includes firearms that shoot only blanks or BB’s.
2. Replica weapons must stand out as fake from at least 10 feet away. An orange safety tip is required on all replica weapons.
3. If any type of blade weapon is sharp enough or has a pointed tip, so that it might cut or pierce the skin – it will not be allowed into StocktonCon.
4. Solid prop weapons which have enough weight to cause physical harm with even a medium swing are not  allowed.
5. Functioning fake projectile weapons – even “Air Soft”, water guns, squirt guns, and any toy that is capable of actually firing a projectile, liquid, or object of any type are not allowed.
6. Weapons will be peace bonded either while you wait in the registration line (prior to 10am) or at the information booth. Your item will be identified so that staff and attendees know it is safe and approved.
7. Aiming, brandishing and pointing any and all weapons at other attendees is not acceptable. If you are in violation of this rule, you may be asked to leave Adventist Health Arena.
8. If this doesn’t answer your question, please bring your replica weapon or prop to our weapons check area near the front entrance.
