NashiCon was started in 2008 on the University of South Carolina campus with less than 40 staff members and over 200 attendees. As we continued to grow, we eventually filed as a 501(c)3 Non-Profit Organization. We’re proud to hold the distinction that NashiCon is the oldest anime convention in South Carolina.

Join us for our thirteenth year in 2020 from February 14th-16th at the Doubletree by Hilton Columbia, South Carolina!

Our Mission Statement:

NashiCon strives to enrich the Greater Columbia area, along with the lives of our volunteers, using the background of Japanese language, arts, and culture to provide educational opportunities while providing a safe environment for people of all walks of life.
