Sunnycon 2013 Launch
Preparations for SunnyCon 2013 are well underway with the site re-launched and ready to go. SunnyCon is an anime and Japanese culture convention held in Sunderland and it quickly established itself as the largest convention in the north east by attracting over 900 visitors in the 2012 event. With the new venue of the event being announced as the Seaburn Centre and the dates set for March 23rd-24th 2013 fans have been abuzz with how they are going to top last year's amazing event and special guests Veronica Taylor.
For 2013 SunnyCon have done it again already announcing world famous anime cosplayers.
These announcements are just the beginning and more guests and events are to be announced running up to the event. Tickets have now gone on sale with 3 types this year under 13's £10, over 13's general entry £25 and VIP tickets £30. Under 13's and over 13's are general entry and permit you to the weekend full of events but VIP gets you in 1 hour early, a free t-shirt, entry into a draw for a prize pack and half priced entry into the evening event.
The north easts biggest anime convention is just getting bigger and Sunderland will expect another influx of colourful costumed geeks from around the UK to descend on Seaburn in March.
