April 6-8th.

It's a fan/industry convention dedicated to Japanese anime and manga called Anime Boston.

It's being held primarily at the Hynes....and also in certain areas of the Sheraton (which is also once again the official hotel of the convention).

Attendance will probably be around 10,000 or more.......with Saturday likely being the busiest day.

So, don't be surprised when you see dozens of people of various ages walking around dressed in various costumes.

FWIW, last year it was held over Memorial Day weekend.....and IIRC, caused a bit of a stir on this forum........so, a bit of advance warning for this year's convention seemed to be in order.
