Nyancon 2015

NyanCon is Lakeland Community College’s premier anime event. This is a full one-day event, free and open to students and the public. NyanCon is an all-fandoms convention where anyone with an interest in anime, gaming, comic books, science fiction, fantasy or any other geeky fandom can convene in a fun, welcoming atmosphere. NyanCon is appropriate for all ages with programming ratings and a section just for kids. We're proud to offer panels on a variety of subjects, a cosplay contest, full gaming area complete with dance, band, video, board, tabletop and card games with tournaments, video rooms, a vendors and artists section, NyanCon theater and so much more! History NyanCon was originally named MiniCon, with the first convention occurring on Friday March 29th, 2013. MiniCon was a test by our hard-working staff to see if we could really pull off a convention, and we succeeded with flying colors! Our projected attendance was less than 100, but we exceeded our expectations with 150+ attendees and tons of positive feedback and support! We did not keep the name MiniCon due to another well-established convention also named Minicon. We sought to reduce confusion and create a new identity for a new convention.
