Retrievercon 2024
Panels, Cosplay Contest, Vendors, and More!
Saturday, March 9, 2024 · 10:30 AM - 8 PM
Join us for Retrievercon, the annual convention hosted by the UMBC Anime Society, back in-person at last! Are you a life-long anime fan? Or are you thinking of becoming one? Then this is the event for you! Whether you're a convention veteran or have never had the chance to attend a convention before, we have something for everyone—awesome vendors, anime showings, a cosplay contest, panels, special guests, free food, and more! Come on down to The Commons for some anime fun!
Of particular note is the Cosplay Contest at 1 PM, which is being co-hosted with the Cosplay Coalition!
Our full schedule will be posted on MyUMBC and on our website soon, but we will have a packed schedule, with events being held all over the Commons throughout the day! This includes panels from our special guests, The Manly Battleships, who will wow you with their anime and fandom knowledge!
We will also have games (of both the board and video varieties), trivia contests if you want to test your anime knowledge, and a full roster of vendors and artists (including UMBC students and alumni)!
Some parts of our event will also be streamed online as part of a hybrid convention experience—these will be held on Discord: https://discord.gg/nzMYKmfVeB.
