PMX and Anime Vegas Both Host Conventions Over Veteran’s Day Weekend
Once again, Pacific Media Expo (PMX) and Anime Vegas will be holding their annual conventions over Veteran’s Day Weekend.
PMX will be held at the LAX Hilton in Los Angeles from November 9 to 11 this year, while Anime Vegas will be from November 10-12, 2012 at the Cashman Center in Las Vegas.
Both conventions have a slight overlap in fan attendance, and the recent scheduling in 2011 and now 2012 has caused many attendees to have to pick one convention over the other. Hopefully the issue will be resolved in 2013 and beyond.
