2025 Guests Sign Ups Volunteers

Local Legend Sign Ups Open

March 1, 2025

Applications to attend PopCult Anime Con 2025 as a Local Legend are now open!

Each year, we look to the New England community for local Cosplayers, Artists, Entertainers and Educators to appear as guests at PCAC. In exchange for guest treatment, our Local Legends prepare panels, workshops and performances to share their talents and skills with convention attendees. Previous Legends include live musicians, popular influencers, professional photographers, award-winning cosplayers and doctorate-holding educators.

This year we are looking specifically for guests who are professional artists or have a background in video content creation/game streaming in addition to the usual cosplayers and performers. Content that works well with our theme for 2025 (Villains & AntiHeroes) is a plus! For more info on Local Legends and how to apply, visit our Guests page.

We are still looking for new heads for our Video Games and Tabletop Departments! More Info Here.

What Are People Saying About PopCult Anime Con?

One of my Favorite Cons!

December 1, 2024

This con has come such a long way from its early days, it’s so based in community and brining joy and uplifting to its attendees. Every staff member I interact with is always so helpful, the offerings of panels and events during the con is so accessible and fun. It’s basically everything you’d want from a small community con in a growing atmosphere. Couldn’t recommend it more! Give it a try!

PopCult was the convention that made me love conventions!

December 1, 2024

I used to dislike conventions, but PopCult was my first anime convention back in 2022 (I went for a friends birthday), and the kind staff and fun events made me absolutely love conventions instead! The attendees are always so kind, and there’s always something fresh and exciting to do there each year! I plan to come back for many, many years!

This is the best convention for beginners! I started going in 2022 and will continue every year! The people and staff are always so sweet and like a huge family

An amazing convention with wonderful staff and friends

December 11, 2024

I personally love these smaller conventions, and with it being my first time at Popcult, it had such a great atmosphere to it. I was lucky enough to be the MC for the masquerade, and getting to work with the stage and tech staff was a great experience. The staff is great to be around, and it’s actually very easy to make friends at the con, and you will probably see them at other cons as well. Go for the entire weekend of a great end of summer convention!
