2009 Conventions
KitaCon - Northampton, 17-19th April 2009
Kitacon is a brand new UK anime convention that will take place in Northampton. Kitacon is a convention run by fans for fans. Some of the older fans out there will remember our venue from previous years past, so it offers a little nostalgia and some fond memories.
To those new to the con experience it offers the ideal place to start, after all most of us began in Northampton and have never looked back. Be you young, old, a hard core fan or a newbie, with a capacity of 600 we offer a place for all.
Tokonatsu - Milton Keynes, 25-28th July 2009
