Hi all

I had wanted to go to Alcon for the whole weekend this year, but now it is canceled I don't know which con to go to.
I live near bristol, so go to the bristol and cardiff cons as day trips.
That leaves me with these con's,

August 29-30 – Manchester Anime & Gaming Con – www.manchesteranimecon.com
October 17-18 – Liverpool Anime & Gaming Con – www.liverpoolanimecon.com
October 10-11 2020 – Newcastle Anime & Gaming Con – www.newcastleanimecon.com
October 31-November 1 – Sheffield Anime & Gaming Con – www.sheffieldanimecon.com

Which do you think would be best for overall con experience?
Which one has the best parties?

Thanks
Zar

Hi [mention=96512]Zartose[/mention]!

I've been to all of the above cons so i'll give my thoughts~

Manchester; Manchester has the largest amount of dealers out of all of the AL events, so if you like looking at artists and dealers then this is definitely a good choice. There's also multiple buildings (more than 1 stage!) so we even have 2 stages! Parties here were my personal favourite too.

Liverpool; Liverpool we actually have a new venue this year so I can't comment much, but I will say that there always seems to be a fun crowd of people at Liverpool and everyone is really friendly, seen some awesome cosplays there.

Newcastle; We've only done one Newcastle event and this years will be bigger, as it's the same venue but more space is being used for the convention. The venue is lovely, and the location is literally a two minute walk from the train station and the coach station, so it's easy to get to and from.

Sheffield; Sheffield is one of my personal favourites as it has a lovely stage area (which is where I spend most of my time) and the crowd was fantastic and got so involved with all of the events that I saw. Also VERY excited for this year because Halloween Night Party!

I might not be helping too much because I like them all but >_>
Overall I would probably say Manchester because there is a lot more dealers to look at and there's two stages so there's double the amount of events. Hopefully this helps a little bit!
