“About Otakon
Otakon is the convention of the otaku generation: by fans, for fans; and we’ll be back for our 19th Otakon on July 27-29, 2012.
Join thousands of your fellow fans as we descend on Baltimore to celebrate all anime, manga, and all facets of Asian pop culture!
Ever since 1999, we’ve taken over a sizable chunk of Baltimore’s Inner Harbor for a 3-day festival celebrating the pop culture that’s brought us everything from Astroboy to Yu-Gi-Oh, from the Seven Samurai to Spirited Away.
We can’t wait to see you there!”
