ABOUT OTAKUTHON
WHY BECOME A PARTNER?
A convention recognized by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Japan
Otakuthon attendees are big fans of Japanese culture. We can often see them proudly wearing the costume of their favourite characters.
This is one of the reasons why in 2018, Otakuthon received an honourable mention from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Japan. This award recognized the hard work Otakuthon did in order to promote cultural exchanges between Japan and Canada, as well as promote good relationships between Japan and other countries. We are the only event in Quebec to have received this award.
The perfect occasion to reach out to Generations Y and Z
The electrifying ambiance of Otakuthon comes from its multicultural crowd that grows in number every year, its colourful costumes and young attendees ready to party. Seventy-six percent of Otakuthon attendees are under 25 years old and their presence on social media is substantial.
An event to promote cultural sharing
The convention wishes to share Japanese culture by providing a meetup place for manga publishers and readers. Every year, the Exhibition Hall receives hundreds of dealers. In 2022, there were 421 artists and 312 dealers from all around the world. Otakuthon is one of the biggest anime conventions in Canada, second only to Anime North, which happens in Toronto.
