An unlimited sushi festival is returning to NYC this fall—and it's been expanded to two days

When it comes to food and drink-related terms, there are few worlds better than "unlimited". We love unlimited beer, cheeseburgers, French fries, hot dogs, almost anything, and it's especially true when it comes to sushi. If afforded the opportunity, we could eat our weight in spicy tuna rolls.

Sushi fans will be excited to learn that this dream is about to become a reality: Sushi-Con is returning to New York City again this fall, and it's bigger and better than in years past.

Last year, with more than 1,700 attendees, the event was so popular that it only makes sense that organizers have extended it to two full days for the 2025 installment. Sushi-Con will take place on Saturday, September 6 and Sunday, September 7 at Metropolitan Pavilion at 125 West 18th St. Hosted by True World Group and Noble Fresh Cart, the event will feature global food exhibitors, sushi and other raw-fish fare from renowned chefs, and more than forty exhibitors and high-end restaurants.

The best part? Just like at previous Sushi-Cons, guests are treated to unlimited (yes, you read that right) sushi tastings of primo salmon, yellowtail, sea bream, sea urchin, bluefin tuna and more. But if "surf and turf" is your thing, you won't be left out—the event also features other Japanese foods, including Wagyu beef, as well as matcha teas, exotic fruits (crown melon, yuzu citrus) and more.

While all-you-can-eat sushi is definitely a big draw, so, too, is the event that takes place each day at 1 pm: Sushi-Con's tuna-cutting demonstration. All about precision and artistry, this crowd-pleasing event features the breathtaking knife skills of executive chefs from some of the city's top-rated sushi restaurants. The pros will break down a 400-pound-plus bluefin tuna with cuts like chu-toro, otoro, and akami for guests to enjoy.

Tickets are on sale now: options include general admission tickets for $150 and VIP tickets for $200. While general entry gets attendees unlimited sampling, a complimentary bag and special discounts from select exhibitor products, the extra $50 will get eventgoers unlimited premium tastings and on-site experiences from brands and restaurants like Maru Sushi, Blue Ribbon Group, Butter Fish, and more. The two-day event runs from noon until 5 pm.
