Anime Convention

Some Animazing Events

Every year we have an amazing schedule schedule filled with events, panels, autograph signings, guest Q&As, games, and more. Last year's schedule can give you an idea of some of our events, but this year we'll have more than ever.

Anime-zing! will offer a spectacular jumble of events for your anime entertainment. With a rave or two, a masquerade, video rooms, gaming, and more, we bring all the anime excitement you can expect to the quad cities.

  • Artist Alley
    Our Artist Alley will be centered around the talent of various unique artists and their studios.

  • Autographs
    You can get the autographs of a guest of honor at an autograph session, for free. Common items for autographs include posters, DVDs, and Death Notes.

  • Concert
    We have Johnny Yong Bosch's band, Eyeshine, performing for us at QC Anime-zing!. Listen to a demo at Eyeshine's website!

  • ConSuite
    Need a place to take a moment and recharge? We offer all kinds of snacks in our ConSuite, but remember this is not a substitute for real meals.

  • Exhibit Hall
    Our awesome exhibit hall will feature all kinds of anime goodies - from Pocky to Plushies, it will probably be there.

  • Gaming
    We will have dedicated rooms for both your video gaming and non-video gaming fun! Enjoy a variety of some of the best table-top games, or play your favorite video games.

  • Hall Cosplay Contest
    A contest in which you can show off your cosplay and be judged by our staff on your workmanship and creativity in creating the costume.

  • Panels & Workshops
    We'll feature dozens of staff and attendee-developed panels, workshops, discussions, and more throughout the main programming track of our anime convention.

  • Masquerade
    As can be expected, we will have an exciting cosplay competition. Details will be announced as the convention approaches.

  • Rave
    We'll crank out some of the best rave music you can find, letting you dance your heart out all night long.
