Otakon Vegas (/ˈoʊtəkɒn/ OH-tə-kon) was a three-day anime convention held during January at the Planet Hollywood Resort and Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada. The convention was organized by Otakorp, the group behind Otakon. The convention typically offered an artist alley, concerts, dealer's room, masquerade, and panels. One of the new programming experiments at Otakon Vegas demonstrated Sumo wrestling. Otakorp announced in early 2013 a new convention would be held at the Planet Hollywood Resort and Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada where they hope to create a smaller convention and test new ideas. Otakon has had issues where new test content has been too successful such as the 2012 Maid Cafe. Representatives from Las Vegas first approached Otakorp about moving Otakon from Baltimore to Las Vegas. Expansion to Vegas was also chosen due to Otakon reaching capacity in Baltimore, along with Vegas being accessible with affordable transportation and several hotel/food options. January dates were chosen for the reason attendees should be less busy. Concerns were raised about the location due to the existence of two conventions in the Las Vegas area. More information...
