Our Story

About Anime Crossroads

Indianapolis's home for anime culture, community, and creativity since day one.

Who We Are

Where Anime Fans Come Together

Anime Crossroads is Indianapolis's premier anime convention — a three-day celebration of everything anime, manga, gaming, and Japanese pop culture. We're built by fans, for fans, with one goal: create the best anime convention experience in the Midwest.

From the moment you walk through the doors, you're surrounded by people who share your passion. Whether you're a lifelong otaku or attending your first convention, Anime Crossroads is your place.

We believe anime is more than entertainment — it's a community, a language, and a way of life. That's what we celebrate every February in Plainfield, Indiana.
