Otakon
Otakon ( ) is an annual three day anime convention held during July/August at the Baltimore Convention Center in Baltimore, Maryland's Inner Harbor district. The convention focuses on East Asian popular culture (primarily anime, manga, music, and cinema) and its fandom. The name is a portmanteau derived from ''convention'' and the Japanese word ''otaku''. Otakon is one of the longest-running Anime conventions in the United States, and the 2nd largest North American anime convention as of 2014.〔
Otakon announced that an additional new convention would be created in Las Vegas, Nevada starting in 2014.〔 It was announced at Otakon 2013's closing ceremonies that the convention will be moving to Washington, D.C. and the Walter E. Washington Convention Center starting in 2017 and continuing until at least 2021.〔
==Programming==
As one of the longest running and largest conventions of its type, Otakon offers a very broad range of programming, exhibits, and other events. Typical Otakon programming includes:〔
Multiple video rooms in which anime and live action East Asian films are shown on big screens throughout the convention. Fan-produced content including fan-parodies and anime music videos (AMVs) are also shown. For several years, Otakon had a dedicated 35 mm film theater, but replaced it in 2008 with an HD theater〔 to take advantage of the wider array of offerings in that format. Panels and workshops on subjects such as voice acting, how to draw manga,〔 Japanese culture, and a variety of other topics. Industry professionals announce new acquisitions, and expert guests discuss or show tricks of their trade and field questions from the audience. Many panels and workshops are conducted by fans rather than pros (ex. ''Create a Comic Project'').〔 Cosplay and a skit-based Masquerade show, which in recent years has taken place inside the Royal Farms Arena.〔
