The three-day convention is expected to draw close to 6,000 attendees this year and brings together art, animation (anime), comic books (manga), video games, film and music in a celebration of Asian popular culture and multimedia.
Events take place starting Friday, August 13, and end Sunday, August 15. Everyone is welcome to register as attendees. The price for a three-day pass is $55 for a three-day pass and daily passes are available.

The convention highlights Vancouver's local creative talent as well as showcasing the work of artists from Canada and abroad.

Convention attendees can attend Q&A's and workshops with voice actors, directors, artists, animators, comic books publishers and game developers.

Video screenings, video game rooms, a cultural festival and live performances by DJs, bands and improv actors are sure to keep guests thoroughly entertained.
