We practiced drawing Amechan at a different angle, but it looks kinda weird lol.

Do you wish the journey hadn't ended? Be sure to register your interest in a future event on our free Patreon. Or, if you can't wait, registration is open for our sister convention Kita-Con. The links can be found here:

Greetings Attendees

As promised, the committee from Amechibi 2025 has convened after a much needed break, and we have decided that - based on your incredible feedback - we'd love to run again.

However, in order for that to happen, we need to make sure more than anything that the interest is there. Last year, we really struggled to reach the community, largely because social media has become a completely unreliable way to reach all of you.

In case you weren't aware, when you write a message on say, Facebook, only a small percentage (about 4%) of those who "like" or "follow" the page will actually see your messages.

Additionally - during the event, if we want to reach you for something important like say, a change of schedule - there is no guarantee you'll get our message, or even a majority will get our message.

To resolve both of these issues, we've started a FREE patreon. Simply sign up to it to confirm your interested in Amecon. Patreon is normally used to raise money, but that's not why we're making one. A free Patreon actually has considerable advantages:

1) You'll be able to see 100% of our posts, we don't have to worry about only a small percentage of attendees getting our messages.

2) You can message us directly, without anything getting lost. Using the contact creator button.

3) We can do polls, surveys, post wallpapers, etc for you to enjoy in full detail without compression. In fact, we've already put a 4k wallpaper up for you to enjoy to get started.

4) For critical news - like registration announcements, venue selection, etc, we can use Patreon to reliably email you directly. Ensuring you get this critical information without it being devoured by a spam filter somewhere.

5) We can clearly see a number of people who are interested in attending that makes sense. Not inflated by bots, spam, etc.

If that sounds great to you and you want to see Amecon run again, you can register your interest on the free Patreon here:
https://www.patreon.com/cw/Amecon

We'll also be reaching out again soon, as we're also looking for a few extra hands to help out.

We hope you had a great Con, Christmas and New Year - and look forward to seeing you again.

Greetings everyone!

We truly hope everyone had a great time at Amecon. It's truly humbling for all of us to hear that the only thing many of you want to know is "What/when is the next one?".

Well, it's a little too early to talk about Ame's future right this moment, the committee & I could do with a week of sleep before we entertain any ideas of an "Ame 2027" (following the usual Pattern of alternating with our sister convention Kita). Honestly, I could use a week of sleep before I entertain any ideas of any kind...

Additionally, while the casual feedback as been amazingly positive, it's not a secret that the convention has struggled with money since covid caused the convention to be cancelled twice. And many of us are also getting on in years, and while we have the youngest committee ever, it's still comfortably over 40...

So, if your rich beyond comprehension and youthful and attractive... do feel free to drop us a line... and who knows...

Seriously though, everything is undecided at this exact moment... but everyone did do everything for free this year, including the performers and artists, everyone involved, webdev, event runners, gophers, tech, everything.

And we certainly don't want to deliver a lesser quality event, so give us a few months to settle the dust and then we'll think about it. If you want to volunteer your time or money, give feedback or just show your support - or if (hopefully not) something went wrong - drop us a line by filling out the feedback form below:

Love & Regards,
The Amecon Committee.

We selected two people at random to show off our new T-shirt. They were advised to smile otherwise we wouldn't let them go. Did you miss your chance to be held hostage by one of our T-shirts? Worry not, you can still order one at the convention itself.

There is also still time to register, so join us at https://www.amecon.org
