What is AmeCon?
AmeCon is the UK's largest residential convention dedicated to the celebration of Japanese Animation and Comics, and the community that these media bring together. We try to be a little bit country, and a little bit rock'n'roll - well, maybe a lot rock'n'roll, but that's beside the point.
The weekend-long timetable is chock-full of attendee-run events providing new insights, or alternative viewpoints, on a variety of related subjects. Either way, they are a great way to meet likeminded people who love the same things you do.
Our infamous nightly parties provide ample opportunity to kick back and get your groove on with friends, old and new. Folks coming to AmeCon might only see each other once or twice a year, so we do everything we can to make it a weekend to remember!
Above all else, AmeCon is an event that is run by fans, for fans, and would be nothing without the fans. Every penny AmeCon receives goes into making the event that bit more special for the hundreds of attendees who return year on year. If you want to know more about AmeCon, have a poke about the site or the forum, or drop us an email!

AmeCon Nominates Charity For 2010
Tue, 16/03/2010 - 9:30pm — KeiichiAmeCon is pleased to announce that the nominated charity for its 2010 convention will be the Donna Louise Children's Hospice Trust.

The Donna Louise Children's Hospice Trust runs a hospice covering the Staffordshire and South Cheshire areas, providing respite and end of life care for life limited children aged between 0 - 19 years old. Currently in its 10th year of operation, the Trust's goal is to open to its full capacity, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, following the announcement at the beginning of 2009, that as a direct result of funding they were having to reduce to just 4 days a week.
Over the weeks and months in the run-up to AmeCon 2010, we hope to bring you some more information and news regarding the Donna-Louise Trust and the people who run the hospice. And of course, we want to make a huge amount of money for them so they can keep on helping as many families as they can.
Keep an eye on the Charity page for more info - the Trust’s own website can be found here.
