About Anime Boston
Anime Boston is a three-day convention held annually in Boston, Massachusetts, under the supervision of the New England Anime Society. Our focus is celebrating and promoting Japanese animation, comics, and pop culture.
Since 2003, this convention has been a cornerstone of the Northeastern anime convention circuit. Following our rapid and unprecedented growth, we moved our venue from the Boston Park Plaza Hotel to the Hynes Convention Center, where we have held Anime Boston since 2005. The Hynes Convention Center and Sheraton Boston Hotel have allowed us to flourish and surpass our expectations since the convention's inception.
While Anime Boston's main focus has always been Japanese animation and comics, we have expanded to include other elements of Japanese pop culture, such as J-pop, J-rock, and live-action Japanese media. Furthermore, we explore Japanese culture and traditions, encouraging attendees to develop a more well-rounded perspective of Japanese society and values.
Today, hundreds of staff members work to make this convention possible. All of our staff members volunteer their time to create a fun con experience for attendees and their fellow teammates. We work year-round to prepare for each convention; in fact, planning for the next year begins before the previous one is even over! Our staff is incredibly diverse and comes from all walks of life and experiences. The hard work and dedication of our staff members ensures that we put on the best show possible.
We, the staff of Anime Boston and the New England Anime Society, thank you for taking an interest in our convention. Your enthusiasm and love for Japanese animation, comics, and pop culture encourage us to give you the best con year after year. We hope to see you soon!
