✿ Anime North?
This is a non-profit anime convention that was first held in 1997, with about 600 attendees. During the last convention, attendees reached over 9000 (16,000+ I mean). Over the years, Anime North (AN) has greatly expanded with great events each year such as the masquerade, dances, panels, concerts, and so on. Many people come each year as a mean of meeting new people with the same interest in anime and Japanese culture.
✿ What's there to do?
MANY THINGS! Cosplay is a popular, but not the only way, many attendees choose to enjoy Anime North. There is the dealer's room where you can purchase goods, play games, watch anime showings, and enjoy talented art over at the artist alley. Other events include the Masquerade, J-pop dance, and concerts. You can check out this link to get an idea what kind of events go on.
