Anime Convention
Organized by Defying Conventions, LLC
Youmacon is not only Detroit's first and only anime convention, it's also one of the fastest growing fan conventions in the country! Last year over 21,000 individuals joined us in downtown Detroit to enjoy our 24 hour programming, great industry guests, cosplay contests, and our epic video game room.
Entering our thirteenth year, Youmacon 2017 will be held at the newly renovated Cobo Center, as well as the Detroit Marriott at the Renaissance Center.
