Ai-Kon 2008 - For the Love of Anime!
Are you ready for Manitoba's premiere anime convention? Ai-Kon is coming back for another non-stop weekend celebrating the geekish hobbies we know and love, from Japanese animation to comics, video games, costumes and so much more!
Being the only convention in the Canadian Prairies, Ai-Kon has and continues to grow due to local demand for a nearby convention surrounding Japanese animation and its' associated media and subcultures. If you're in the area, please stop by and check it out; we're certain you'll like what you see. And for any travellers among you, Winnipeg is a city rich with history and culture, so a trip to Ai-Kon may have even more than you bargained for.
