OffKai Expo Announces 2026 Event

Following the success of the 2025 event, OffKai Expo has announced that it will return for another festive weekend in 2026.

OffKai Expo Gen 5 will once again be hosted at the San Jose Convention Center, this time from July 24th to July 26th. No guest announcements or details about what is being planned have been announced at the moment. This also includes panels and special events, but that will change in the future.

Registration for the event will open on November 28th at 5pm (PT). Hotel blocks and vendor applications are also set to open sometime in the future. Additional information will become available in the coming weeks and months.

OffKai Expo is the Bay Area’s first and largest VTuber convention. The event invites fans for a chance to meet some of the biggest VTubers. At the same time, there are games to enjoy along with a dealer’s hall and some musical shows.

The 2025 event was the largest yet, highlighted by OffKai LIVE’s stellar lineup. It also featured the OffKai Cafe, the Keyboard Meetup, and OffChoir performing VTuber music. Fans enjoyed an Itasha show and the always-popular Cosplay Contest. The convention also hosted an official live viewing of Love Live! Sunshine!! Aqours Finale LoveLive! ～EIKYU STAGE～.
