Meets will be back at this year’s Nadeshicon!
Following their huge success during last year’s edition of the festival, we decided to bring back Meets this year as well! As their name implies, Meets are meetings based on a specific theme between fans of the specified theme as well as people interested in it. As such, Meets are designed for people attending them to share their passion, discuss it, and simply have a good time.
However, for Meets to happen, we need you to submit ideas and themes you would like to see a Meet of at Nadeshicon! To do so, head to the Get involved section where you will find the appropriate form. Be sure to read the instructions both on the website and in the form itself! Once you’ve filled the form, please send it to [email protected].
Also, if you’re part of a group, on Facebook or any other platform, based on a subject you’d like to see a Meet of a Nadeshicon, we’d suggest discussing it with the other members of the group before filling the form, as to only submit the form once.
Please note that we might not be able to accept all Meet submissions, depending on the volume of submissions, so we reserve the right to refuse some of them.
The deadline for submitting forms for Meets is April 1st.
A few reminders!
We are still looking for volunteers to help during the festival! If you would like to get involved, you can do so by filling the appropriate form in the Get Involved section. Once you’ve filled it, please send it to [email protected]. Don’t forget that if you work 6 hours or more as a volunteer, we will give you a refund for your badge!
Also, if you would like to hold a panel at our convention, you can find the form for it in the Get Involved section as well. Please send that one to [email protected] before March 20th, as that is the deadlines for panel submissions!
Lastly, if you haven’t seen it yet, you can find our Facebook Event page here.
We wish you a great day!
