PersaCon, originally ChibiCon, was an anime convention held in various locations around Alabama. PersaCon was the first anime convention to be held in the state of Alabama.[1][2]

Programming

PersaCon typically featured costume contests, dances, dealer's room, karaoke contests, live concerts, panels, speed dating, and workshops.[2][3]

History

The convention moved to the Von Braun Center in 2008 due to continued growth, but did not return to the location due to the cost.[2][3] Portions of the conventions proceeds in 2010 went towards Operation Anime Storm and Cystic Fibrosis Foundation.[2]
