    My friends and I are planning on going to an anime convention in the US and Canada. We are not sure which city we would like to attend, but does anyone know the dates for the conventions? We're told that Toronto, NYC, and LA has the biggest conventions.. so we are primarily looking at Toronto, NYC or LA for now but would like any info we could get!!

    I did find a couple sites, but they have different dates on each so if anyone knows for certain, please let me know!!

    Below are the links I have found

    Thanks!!

    PS. I had made a thread of this in the Anime Manga section but noticed more people look at "The Lounge" as opposed to the Anime Manga section...

    We're coming from Canada.. Could you confirm if the dates are correct on the 2 sites? Is the convention huge, like lots of things to see/do/buy?

    Thanks Suga! If I end up going to the NYC con I'll definitely make time for the NYC meet -bigsmile Though hopefully the meet would be near the anime convention lol

    Don't need to be a baller to attend anime conventions in another part of the world. My friends and I all work so we all try to save up to go on vacation.

    I mostly go to Katsucon and Otacon (not sure if I spelt it correctly) which is on the Eastern Coast side of the US. The one I really want to go to is AnimeExpo (in CA) which is the largest convention in the US from what I heard.
