About OneAnime

OneAnime wants every attendee to have a good time. We strive to keep the convention family friendly so that fans of all ages can enjoy themselves. Anyone found violating these rules may be expelled from the convention without refund, suspended from future events, or subject to legal action.

BADGE POLICY

Please keep your badge visible and be prepared to show it for access to convention space and events. It identifies you as a paid attendee of OneAnime. Keep track of your badge. If you lose your badge, you may purchase a new one at a discounted rate. Violation of any rules and regulations set forth by OneAnime could result in the loss of your badge and expulsion from the convention without refund.

Any attempts to defraud OneAnime registration or attendance policies either before, during, or after the convention will be pursued to the fullest extent.

SERVICE ANIMAL POLICY

The Davis Conference Center prohibits all animals on its campus. This includes therapy or anxiety pets. Only service animals, as defined by the ADA and trained to provide assistance to an individual with a disability, are welcome at OneAnime. The handler is responsible for the care and supervision of their service animal. If the animal is found to be disruptive or behaving in an unacceptable way, OneAnime reserves the right to ask that the animal be removed. Under ADA guidelines, all service animals must be harnessed, leashed, or tethered at all times unless this affects their ability to perform their task. Do not pet a service animal.

DON'T DO ANYTHING STUPID

No running, climbing, or other horseplay that might result in harm to yourself, others, or property is allowed. Please be careful and do not engage in any activity that might cause injury.

WHEELED TRANSPORTATION POLICY

No roller skates, bicycles, roller blades, skateboards, scooters, Segways, hoverboards, or wheeled shoes (e.g., Heelys) are allowed inside the convention center. You may carry these items as props, but you may not ride them.

NO OUTSIDE FOOD OR DRINKS

No outside food or beverages of any kind may be brought into the Davis Conference Center by any guests, invitees, or attendees. Due to health code violations, food or beverage purchased through the Davis Conference Center food service is not allowed to be taken off the property. The only exception is for vendors in the Dealer’s Room selling specialty imported, prepackaged drinks and snacks.

ALCOHOL AND DRUGS POLICY

No alcohol is permitted to enter the convention center. Although the Fahrenheit Lounge inside the Hilton Garden Inn serves alcohol, any disruptions or impaired behavior due to intoxication will not be tolerated. OneAnime has a ZERO tolerance policy on illegal substances. Violations will result in loss of badge, expulsion, and possible legal action.

HARASSMENT AND ASSAULT

Harassment—including unwanted physical contact, following someone in a public area, verbal assaults, unwanted sexual behavior, or threatening physical violence—will not be tolerated. Offenders may lose their badge, be expelled from the convention, and be reported to law enforcement.

STAFF AND GUEST RESPECT

Listen to and respect the staff, volunteers, and guests of OneAnime. If a staff member instructs you to do or not do something, please comply. Disrespect or disregard may result in badge removal and expulsion.

All costumes must be family friendly and meet the dress code. Unsealed makeup, ill‑fitting or damaged clothing, or costumes that expose excessive skin are not permitted.

Props—including weapons—must be safe and are subject to security checks. No real guns are allowed; any prop weapon must be clearly a replica.

Photography and video are allowed in common areas except where restricted (such as in Artist Alley or during certain panels). Always ask permission before photographing or recording individuals.

Merchandise may only be sold in designated areas (Dealer’s Room, Artist’s Alley, and the Art Show). Anyone receiving payment in the convention space must comply with all OneAnime rules regarding sales. Each area has its own rules and contracts that must be signed. Nothing may be sold outside the designated areas.

Any solicitation that does not comply with these restrictions may result in the loss of your badge, the return of all payments, and expulsion from the convention.

No signs are allowed unless pre‑approved. This includes, but is not limited to, “hentai”, “yaoi”, “yuri” paddles, picket signs, and banners. Signs offering favors for sale (such as kisses, hugs, dates, gropes, spankings, etc.) are strictly prohibited.

Please follow all instructions regarding lining up, noise control, and property care. Be considerate of other hotel guests and convention attendees.

Camping in the convention area is not allowed.
