}}Nekocon is an annual three-day anime convention held traditionally on the first weekend in November at the Hampton Roads Convention Center in Hampton, Virginia. It is Virginia's oldest anime convention.[3] The convention's name comes from the Japanese word "neko", meaning "cat".[4]

Programming

The convention typically offers art shows, artist's alley, autograph sessions, card game tournaments, charity auction, concerts, costume competition, dances, dealer’s room, fashion show, karaoke contests, kimono/tea ceremony workshop, maid cafe, music video contest, panels, Q&A sessions, role playing, tabletop games, vendors, video game tournaments, video rooms, and workshops.[4][5][8][6][7] Nekocon's 2015 charity events benefited Be The Match.[7]

History

An attendance cap of 1,600 passes was instituted in 2003 due to fire code regulations.[8] The convention held its first J-rock concert in 2009, hosting Suicide Ali.[9] Virginia Air and Space Center provided content during the 2012 convention.[1] Nekocon in 2017 had an Anime style cooking challenge with students from the Culinary Institute of Virginia.[10]
