FAQ

What does postponement mean for those who have already registered for A-Kon 33?

To everyone who snagged pre-registrations, we want to sincerely thank you for your early support for 2024. We want to reassure you that A-Kon 33 registration purchases are being refunded, please read more about that here. We will reopen sales again once we are able to confirm our new dates.

Will there be another A-Kon in the future?

Yes—we’re planning to return. There will not be an event in 2025, but we’re actively exploring possibilities for 2026 or 2027. We want to come back the right way, with the creativity and community spirit that make A-Kon what it is.
