It’s not uncommon for guests to cancel at the last minute due to unforeseen circumstances.

Not to worry as there is still plenty to do during the weekend. Among the guests who will be present are Jirard Khalil, Kyle McCarley, cosplayers Aicosu, Bandai Namco Collectables Hobby host Linda Le, and anime historian Gilles Poitras. The panel, eSport tournaments, and cosplay gathering schedule are now online.

FanimeCon 2023 will take place during the Memorial Day Weekend at the San Jose Convention Center along with the surrounding locations. It is one of the largest fan organized anime conventions in North America.
