Guests can take part in 50+ hours of on-stage and interactive programming like celebrity guest panels, live sketch duels, hands-on science demos, more anime programming than ever before (VA Q&A’s, dance shows, screenings, and more), and a new series on Vancouver’s true crime and paranormal history. Plus, the return of the Cosplay Red Carpet and the FXV Family Zone, perfect for fans of all ages and families celebrating the Family Day long weekend in true fan fashion.
A full health & safety plan was released 30 days prior to the show and continues to update as recommendations and restrictions evolve. To ensure attendees can maintain social distance to their comfort, organizers have capped attendance and added an extra hall (halls A,B,C), expanded aisle and queues, and will only permit masks to be removed in dedicated food and beverage areas. All staff and participants over the age of 12 will be expected to provide proof of vaccination via QR and accompanying government issued I.D.
