What is AmeCon?

AmeCon is the UK's largest residential convention dedicated to the celebration of Japanese Animation and Comics, and the community that these media bring together. We try to be a little bit country, and a little bit rock'n'roll - well, maybe a lot rock'n'roll, but that's beside the point.

The weekend-long timetable is chock-full of attendee-run events providing new insights, or alternative viewpoints, on a variety of related subjects. Either way, they are a great way to meet likeminded people who love the same things you do.

Our infamous nightly parties provide ample opportunity to kick back and get your groove on with friends, old and new. Folks coming to AmeCon might only see each other once or twice a year, so we do everything we can to make it a weekend to remember!

Above all else, AmeCon is an event that is run by fans, for fans, and would be nothing without the fans. Every penny AmeCon receives goes into making the event that bit more special for the hundreds of attendees who return year on year. If you want to know more about AmeCon, have a poke about the site or the forum, or drop us an email!

AmeCon 2012 Comes To An End

AmeCon 2012 is over and the committee would like to thank everyone who attended over the weekend. If you wish to leave feedback, please visit our forum at amecon.org/forum. We also have a Flickr group ready for all your photographs.

A special thanks goes to all our gophers and event organisers who were absolutely fantastic and to everyone who donated to Aid for Japan in our charity drive. You can still donate through our JustGiving page on justgiving.com/amecon2012 until 31 October 2012.

 
The entire committee would also like to give a very special thank you to Will, Hel and Kirsty, who will be leaving the committee this year for their many years of service. If you wish to express your thanks please visit this forum topic.
 
Please note that the forums will be closing on 9 September 2012 at 22:00. You will not be able to access your account or the forum topics after this date. 
 
AmeCon will return in 2014, but if you cannot wait that long then you'll be interested in hearing that AyaCon will be running at the Warwick Art Centre during 16-18 August 2013. You can register now for AyaCon by visiting ayacon.org.uk.
 
 
From the entire AmeCon committee, thank you and we hope to see you again soon.
