History
Anime NebrasKon was founded by the members of University of Nebraska-Lincoln's anime club (Otaku Jinrui) in 2004 as a fund-raising project and had 300 attendees at the first convention.[2][9][10] Due to the convention's growth, in 2009 it moved to the Holiday Inn Omaha Convention Center in Omaha, Nebraska, and added 24-hour programming.[2] Weddings have been held at the convention in both 2010 and 2011.[4] The dealers room was expanded in 2012 because of renovations at the Ramada.[11] An attendee on the way to the convention in 2012 was briefly detained by police after entering a bank wearing cosplay from the series Resident Evil.[12] For 2016, the convention moved to La Vista in order to accommodate growth.[13] Anime NebrasKon 2020 was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[14][15]
