You know you want to be here!

If you’re in the Seattle area this Easter weekend, stop by Sakura-Con, the Pacific Northwest’s premiere anime, manga and Japanese cultural convention.

Japanese rock band, HIGH and MIGHTY COLOR, along with the indie group Dazzle Vision will perform for their fans for the first time in North America. Mai Kadowaki, Yutaka Minowa, Todd Haberkorn, Chris Patton, Satoshi Nishimura, are just some of the amazing guests lined up for the 13^th incarnation of Sakura-con.

Of course, there will be plenty of interactive panels, video and game rooms, a large artist’s alley and exhibition hall and of course cosplay!

Sakura-Con runs from April 2^nd to 4^th at the Washington State Convention and Trade Center in downtown Seattle.
