Anime Matsuri brings anime fandom and Japanese arts into a convention-scale Houston gathering, with a format spanning panels, workshops, vendors, Artist Alley, gaming, cosplay, fashion and concerts. The organizer currently lists July 22–25, 2027, but explicitly warns that dates may change. Treat this as a tentative planning lead, not a final daily schedule: show hours and the edition’s guest lineup are not confirmed here. Admission requires a convention ticket.
