Ok, guess I can post cons. As per usual, stolen from first Google result. Thread does not endorse any event, do your own research etc. if you know of more, especially more traditional cons rather than modernised trade shows and what not then stick em in the thread.Dates Location Sheffield Anime & Gaming Con 2024 September 14-15, 2024 Mercure Sheffield St Paul's Hotel & Spa Sheffield Japan Fest Buxton 2024 September 29, 2024 Pavillion Gardens Buxton Newcastle Anime & Gaming Con 2024 October 5-6, 2024 Event Northumbria Newcastle Animangapop Brighton 2024 November 2, 2024 Holiday Inn Brighton - Seafront Brighton Brighton Anime & Gaming Con 2024 November 9-10, 2024 The Old Ship Hotel Brighton Animangapop Cardiff 2024 November 30, 2024 Future Inn Cardiff Bay Cardiff

any cosplay conventions soon?

Anon12/28/24, 16:15No.10944195

Are there any still active residential/social round-the-clock cons (like Koko, Kita, Ame, Hotaru) that do on-site sleeping bag accommodation? Whether having some of the rooms dedicated to it, a sports hall turned into a camping zone or just tacit approval for people to crash in random places?

What happened at Custom House station? Was travelling to meet friends tonight (staying a few stops away from Excel this year) and everything after Royal Victoria was cancelled due to "a serious incident at Custom House for Excel" and they were bringing out the shuttle buses. Seemed to kick off about 9:30 ish.

MCM was fun, don't think I ever want to drive there again though. Way too much funko shit, temu slop and general trash on stalls.

Anon05/26/25, 20:19No.10953126

just the usual thing of bootleg stuff being sold on stalls and that then, no new big drama this time?

Anon05/27/25, 02:33No.10953229

has anyone been to one of those small anime conventions run by animeleauge in hotels? Are they worth going to?

Anon06/03/25, 14:57No.10953900

Only time I've went to HyperJapan was in 2017, though, it was a blast; from what I can remember, there were definitely cosplayers, and the food was great. Going there for the 2nd time this year since it was pretty nostalgic.

Anon02/07/26, 14:05No.10967949

Kitacon looking like a red flag parade. All communication running through Discord and Youtube videos, including when registration would open; reduced accommodation offerings from Warwick, unable to even confirm if guests and vendors can get onsite accommodation.I don't think they sold out last year and feels like they'll badly struggle to this year.

Heading up Manc for work next month, figured I could drop by one of these and check it off of the bucket list especially if there are any Anons; but skimming the the thread apparently Raku doesn't have a good reputation. QRD? Better to wait for the Feb/March 2027 one if I'm around again? Also are all these cons online-preorder-digital-ticket only these days?
