The UK’s Ultimate Otaku Playground

Step into a world where fandom takes centre stage. AnimeCon brings together the UK’s biggest celebration of Anime and Manga culture for a full two days packed with energy, colour, and community.

From binge-worthy Anime and iconic Manga moments to J-Pop and K-Pop performances, this is where pop culture comes alive. Meet some of the voices behind your favourite characters, with special guests including Justin Briner, Jason Liebrecht, Elizabeth Maxwell and more bringing their stories and characters to life through exciting guest appearances and fan experiences.

Strike a pose at the Cosplay Catwalk and dazzle the crowd with your craftsmanship, creativity, and confidence. Whether you’re a seasoned cosplayer or stepping onto the runway for the first time, it’s the ultimate stage for anime-inspired style.

Then head to Artist Alley, where talented illustrators, designers, and craftspeople showcase one-of-a-kind creations inspired by your favourite anime, manga, and games. Discover something new, meet the creators behind the art, and take home a piece of fandom to treasure.

Whether you’re here to meet your favourite stars, shop, cosplay, collect, discover incredible artwork, or simply soak up the atmosphere, AnimeCon is your ultimate destination for Otaku culture.
