Join us for our annual celebration of anime, science fiction, fantasy, comics, games, and fandom in Lancaster, PA. Our three-plus day event includes panels, workshops, screenings, cosplay, video and tabletop gaming, LARP, AMVs, dances, vendors, artists, and more!

Zenkaikon was created in 2006 through the merging of two Philadelphia-area events — Kosaikon, an anime convention held at Villanova University, and Zentrancon, an anime and science fiction convention held on the University of Pennsylvania campus. In 2006, Zenkaikon held its first event at the Valley Forge Scanticon Hotel and Conference Center in King of Prussia, Pennsylvania. Approximately 450 fans attended to attend educational panels, watch anime and science fiction screenings, meet celebrity guests, and participate in video gaming.
