Sonic EXPO 2025 is currently a 3 day event. Sonic EXPO 2025 is from November 7th-November 9th.

Sonic EXPO is taking place at the Mesquite Convention Center, located at 1700 Rodeo Dr, Mesquite, TX 75149.

We are currently getting this information from the hotel. Currently this answer is yes. 

Unfortunately, Mesquite does not have an active public transportation system.

STARtransit has some limited connections to the Dallas Transportation system (DART)

Please learn more here: https://www.startransit.org/how-to-ride/connections-to-dart/ 

Due to the hotel’s restrictions, outside food and drink such as fast food, delivery, and groceries are not allowed further than the hotel lobby.

The Concert will take place on the 8th, Saturday Night.

All Sonic EXPO Badges do NOT include admission into the concert. Concert tickets are a purchase that must be bought in addition to the badge in order to attend.

Sonic EXPO 2025 is an action packed event with tons of value that comes with the regular badge including access to the following:

• Cosplay Contest
• Guest Hall
• Artist Alley | Exhibitor Hall
• Panel Rooms
• Gaming Hall
• The Jam Zone
• Friday Night Rave (18+ Only)

Unfortunately the cost of running a large scale production for a concert is out of the scope of a regular convention price. In order for us to bring such an amazing experience to you, we need everyone interested in our concert to purchase a separate concert ticket while supplies last to ensure we can create an unforgettable memory. In addition to this, we have to know exactly how many people we are expecting at the concert to ensure it is a safe and enjoyable concert experience.

Our concert is not included with any badge purchase this year.

If you purchase a Regular, VIP badge, or some level of Sponsor Badge, you must also purchase a Concert ticket in order to attend. 

On our Ticketing Website, you will find the concert ticket listed alongside our badges.

We have implemented a system to Sonic EXPO called the DASH PASS.

The DASH PASS emblem will be scattered across the event indicating all lines that you can skip. If there is a DASH PASS sign at a line and you have a DASH PASS symbol on your badge, you can skip that line. If multiple people are using a DASH PASS at the same time, a DASH PASS line will form, but it should be much faster than the regular line.

DASH PASS is included with the following badges:

• VIP Badge
• All levels of Sponsor Badges

All attendees must have a badge. Be sure to purchase your badge in advance!

Here are some quick and simple steps to help you find your ticket

1. Check your spam folder
2. Check your Trash Folder
3. Check your “All Mail” tab
4. Search for Sonic EXPO in your email search bar
5. Check your bank account to see if the transaction was made successfully.

If none of these solved your problem, please email us at help@SonicEXPO.org

We are more than happy to help with any accommodations that are within our power.

If you’re in need of accommodations, please email us at ada@sonicexpo.org.

We understand the need to leave event premises sometimes, so re-entry into Sonic Expo 2025 and the rave or concert are permitted.

Please be aware that badge checks may be conducted by security if deemed necessary. We want everyone to have a great time and thank you for your cooperation.
