WasabiCon PDX
About Us
Newcon PDX started in 2012 as a “new con” for Portland fans of sci-fi, video games, anime, comics and cosplay. Shortly after, the convention launched a secondary show called Anime PDX to focus more on Asian pop culture. In 2018, both shows were acquired by Green Mustard Entertainment and rebranded as Fandom PDX and ran under that moniker for three years before becoming WasabiCon PDX.
Like its sister show in Jacksonville, Florida, WasabiCon PDX focuses on three key facets of fandom: anime, cosplay and gaming!
Our philosophy is a simple one: create a memorable experience for pop culture fans where everyone feels included. Cosplay a favorite character, check out a panel about a new show, buy that print from an artist you’ve recently discovered, and just be yourself in an environment of like-minded fans celebrating their own passions for movies, music, TV, tabletop adventures, video games and much, much more. Fandom is family at our event, and we hope you’ll choose to be a part of it.
