Anime Town Greenville Comes Back with a Bang!

Greenville is all set to host its very own exciting festival dedicated to all things Anime from January 31 to February 2 at the Greenville Convention Center. This third installment of Anime Town Greenville promises to be bigger and better than ever!

A Brief History

Anime Town Greenville first began in 2023 when organizer Tim Hyde recognized a fantastic opportunity after hosting their inaugural event that attracted around 5,000 fans. With such a great turnout, it was clear that this charming Southern city had an untapped market just waiting for a blast of Japanese-style animation culture. Fast forward to today, and this year’s event is shaping up to deliver on that promise!

What’s New This Year?

Anime enthusiasts can look forward to a jam-packed schedule filled with various Anime-related activities. Some highlights this year include:

  • Celebrity Autographs: Get a signature from your favorite voice actors!
  • Game Card Trading: Bring your best cards and trade with other fans!
  • Cosplay Contest: Show off your incredible costumes and win prizes!
  • Merchant Booths: Browse a collection of Anime goodies!
  • Q&A Panels: Join discussions with guest speakers!

This year, attendees will have the unique opportunity to meet 17 talented Anime voice actors. Notable guests include:

  • Dante Basco, known for his work in “Avatar” and “Hook”
  • Brian Drummond, the voice behind characters from “Death Note” and “Dragon Ball Z”
  • Kyle Hebert from “Dragon Ball Z”
  • Jessie Flower, also from “Avatar”
  • Brianna Knickerbocker, famous for her role in “Demon Slayer”

After Hours Fun!

This year’s event is upping the fun with new “after hours” programming! Fans can dance the night away with an “Anime meets ’80s-themed prom dance” set for Friday night. Saturday promises to be packed with more adult-oriented content, featuring events designed for guests aged 18 and over alongside more PG-13 Anime content.

As a special addition, the famous “backpack kid,” who skyrocketed to fame for popularizing the catchy “floss” dance, will be making an appearance. Not only will he sign autographs, but he’ll also host a fun Q&A session — an excellent opportunity for a selfie!

Looking Ahead

Anime Town Greenville isn’t a one-time affair; organizers have already booked the convention center through 2026, showing a commitment to making this a staple event. The convention aims not only at hardcore Anime fans but also at those with an interest in Asian art and trading cards. It opens the door to a wealth of creativity, culture, and community engagement.
