Thanks to a good friend for sharing the AnimeCom Fest link with us. As the saying goes, “ef a hegg, wi inna di red”. So Jamaica is not to be left out of the Anime movement. “Anime Con Jamaica is an annual multi-genre entertainment convention & creative festival for fans and creators dedicated to all things artistic, fun, and culturally diverse”, it’s website says. And throw in cosplay, which was its own treat to see. The 2019 event welcomed over 2000 visitors, over 30 exhibitors and vendors, 3 local media houses, the website tells us and from all indications it seems things will be back on track post-Covid. Interesting times ahead for entertainment and culture expansion on the island.

AnimeCom is an amazing annual Japanese anime convention, multi-genre entertainment and creative festival that brings the very best to Kingston, Jamaica. With anime, comic, gaming, cosplay, artists, film, authors, panels, vendors, guests and just so much more; there is something for everyone.
