SoDak Con formerly called SoDak Anime Convention, is an annual three day anime convention held during May/June at the Rushmore Plaza Civic Center in Rapid City, South Dakota.[2] The name of the convention comes from the state that the convention is located in, South Dakota.[3]

Programming

The convention typically offers art, a charity auction, costume contest, fashion, Japanese fashion show, music videos, speakers, table-top gaming, vendors, video games, and a video room.[1][2][4][5][6]
