AnimeCon UK is gearing up for its first event in London on Saturday 3rd and Sunday 4th of February, after a huge success at the NEC in Birmingham last summer.
The UK’s largest expo of its kind will be held at Drumsheds for the very first time. Talent will be coming in from all across the globe to make the February con a must-attend for fans of anime, manga, and all things geek culture.
Artists already confirmed include voice acting legend Keith Silverstein, who plays Zhongli in Genshin and Torbjörn in Overwatch; Brianna Knickerbocker the voice of Hu Tao; Nazeeh Tarsha who plays Alhaitham; and Joe Zieja who plays Claude in Fire Emblem: Three houses.
As well as guest appearances fans can expect a raft of entertainment including the Artists Alley, live podcasts, Q&A’s about your favourite shows, karaoke, and even an appearance from anime-themed restaurant Uzumaki.
If this wasn’t enough for fans the famous Anime After Party will be headed up by international pop culture host and DJ, Level Up Leroy, and hosted by Anime and Chill.
With cosplay dress actively encouraged, Drumsheds won’t have seen a party like this before!
