About Zenkaikon: <http://www.animecons.com/events/info.shtml/1219> Zenkaikon was formed by the merger of the anime and sci-fi convention Zentrancon and the anime convention Kosaikon, both in the Philadelphia area. In 2006 they put on their first event, which was a tremendous success. Zenkaikon will return for its fourth installment on 11/7-11/8/09, moving into the Radisson Hotel Valley Forge, which is connected to its previous location at the Scanticon Valley Forge. The con will continue its expansion to two days of programming with all the standard fare of dealers, artists, panels, performances, gaming and more on both days of the convention. The Zenkaikon staff wishes to thank the many attendees who made the 2008 event such a huge success. They hope to see this trend continue in 2009, and are actively anticipating expansion with larger performance and panel areas, dealer space, and video game rooms.
