The Denver, Colorado area is not short on conventions, and this month the Colorado Anime Fest will be at the Renaissance Denver Stapleton Hotel from Friday, March 23rd through Sunday, March 25th!

Colorado Anime Fest is a convention goer’s dream, with a dealer’s room for all of your nerdy purchasing needs, a cosplay competition for the crafty, AMV competiton, an artist alley, a schedule packed full of panels, video game rooms, tabletop rooms, manga and anime library, a maid café, and an anime themed bar, and a rave on Saturday night! One thing is for sure, you won’t be without something to do!

Cassandra Lee (voice of Persona 5’s Morgana) Will Be There!

A convention would not be half as fun without its guests, and over that weekend at Colorado Anime Fest you can expect to see: Amanda C. Miller (voice actor), Cassandra Lee Morris (voice actor, Morgana from Persona 5), Erica Lindbeck (voice actor), David Vincent (voice actor), Joel McDonald (voice actor and ADR director with Funimation), Samurai Dan and Jillian (sword based entertainment/comedy show), and Greg Wicker (anime themed game show host). Many more are planning to be there as they put the final touches on their roster before opening weekend! Pay attention to the site for further developments!

Be sure to ensure your cosplay, props, and access badge are all up to code by checking up on the Rules and Policies that are detailed and on their site. There are no strange or out of the ordinary rules, they are setting up a fun event, in a fun location, and that is paramount.

Outside Picture of the Hotel

Hotel rooms are still available at the Renaissance Denver Stapleton Hotel, so if you are planning to party all weekend, it’s time to jump on a room reservation! Half the fun of a convention is that the fun never has to end if you have a room there. There will always be a gaggle of like minded people to sit down with or something in the hotel to explore. Late night hours of walking around the hotel and running into your favorite costumed characters is always a treat, and a great way to meet new friends!  Rooms are currently running for $134 a night, with Single King Sized rooms left, so hurry up and head on over to their Hotel Information page for everything you need to know to get booked!

Our team from Sub Cultured will be at the convention first thing on Friday, and we will be staying on location for the entirety of the weekend. We hope to see a bunch of you there, and for those who cannot make it we will take pictures of as many costumes and moments as we can, and share them throughout the week following the event. This will be our first time attending Colorado Anime Fest, and we could not be more excited to experience it on March 23!

As of now the maps and hours are set, but further updates may be added. Head on over to their Convention Hours & Maps page and start planning out your weekend.  Many more things are still being announced as the convention draws near, so keep an eye on Sub Cultured for all the details! And don’t forget to come up to us and say hi!
