Ribbon Services
Looking to get started on your ribbon hunting journey, but not sure where to start? Head on over to Ribbon Services. Start at Ribbon Information and learn more about ribbons – what ribbons are, how to earn ribbons, where to find them, what we offer at the Ribbon Station.
Earn free ribbons by completing the Ribbon Scavenger hunt or by chasing down your favorite ribbons using the Ribbon Finder. From there, consider heading on over to the Wonder Trade for a surprise ribbon exchange or the Trading Post to see what other ribbon hunters have to offer. Once you’ve had enough, consider keeping the ribbon community in motion by donating your ribbons to earn exclusive ribbons!
Ribbon Scavenger Hunt
Is it your first time visiting Animé Los Angeles in Long Beach? Explore the venue, complete one row of tasks, and earn an exclusive ribbon from the Ribbon Station when you complete one full row of tasks!
There may even be a ribbon reward for those who complete the entire board hunt!
Complete a task at various locations at Anime Los Angeles, and bring this page to the Ribbon Station along with your photos to earn an official Animé Los Angeles stamp for each item. One photo per stamp. For example, taking a photo at a gathering of characters dressed in school girl attire can only be redeemed for one stamp on either category.
Weekend Achievement Ribbon
Daily participation in our activities will earn you Daily Achievement Stamps. Collect all 4 stamps and receive a Weekend Achievement Ribbon as reward!
Miss a stamp or two? Stop by Sunday, and we’ll see what we can do. *wink**wink* *nudge**nudge*
Ribbon Wonder Trade
Drop off a ribbon to get a completely random ribbon in exchange! Wonder Trade may take up to a few hours to find you a trading partner, so continue your ribbon hunt while you wait. Just don’t forget to come back for your ribbon!
Ribbon Trading
If you like trading ribbons, a designated trading space will be provided at the Ribbon Station throughout the weekend. You may even get an exclusive ribbon or two!
Ribbon Repair
Never fear rain or gravity again! We offer ribbon repair and sewing services that prevent your ribbons from falling off your ever-growing chain, and help you put them back together if they do.
Community Ribbon
Want to see your ribbon design or idea at Ribbon Station? The Community Ribbon is a ribbon designed by attendees for attendees! Ribbon Station will take all the ribbon suggestions, and compile our favorites into a public vote to decide the newest addition to the Ribbon Station lineup (with credit and prizes of course)!
At this time, submissions have closed & Community Voting has ended! Find out about who’s design won at Animé LA 21!
Ribbon Finder
Are you after that holy grail ribbon? Want to find out what panels and gatherings feature exclusive ribbons? Or are you wanting to complete a Ribbon game and get that exclusive completion ribbon? Look no further than our Ribbon Finder board. Here you can find out which artists, exhibitors, panels, and events offer ribbons and how to earn their ribbon. Please check this board throughout the weekend as it is constantly updated!
