So I notice that some people don't know where all the cons near them are and I'm here to help. If you want to know if you missed anything just ask.

I'm going to take this as a northern California kind of question. Because I could always point that that there is Comic-Con. Just to warn you I don't know where the line ends between north and south, but I'll do my best.

Yaoi-con, San Francisco, October. -Warning note here.

Kin-Yoobi Con
Newark, CA USA
August 11-12, 2012

AnimeiCon
Monterey, CA USA
November 30 - December 1, 2012

Ani-Jam
Fresno, CA USA
August 18-19, 2012

No-Anime Con's/More than Anime
Alternative Press Expo in San Francisco, CA
WonderCon in San Francisco, CA
AOD: The San Francisco Animation Convention (in San Francisco, August)

No problem.

By the way is Fresno Northern or Southern? That way I can draw a line somewhere.

Actually I wasn't too sure where the line was drawn as well, but Wikipedia lists Fresno as Northern Picture for easy reference~ 3nodding
