Heroes of Nadeshicon on Youtube!

During the masquerade of Nadeshicon 2016, we showed you a video of our two cosplay guests, Jessie “Nienna Surion” Frenette and Félicia “Darkarnival Butler” Dussault, realizing cosplays for a friendly bout.
 
With the World Cosplay Summit drawing closer, we invite you to watch it again and cheer for our two canadian representatives in the coming competition!
 
A huge thank you to everyone involved, especially Jessie and Félicia, Rebecca Tremblay for editing the video, and Luduc for being such a good sport and agreeing to being the host!

Post-mortem for Nadeshicon 2016

Since we’re on the topic of feedback, we’ll be holding a post-mortem meeting for Nadeshicon 2016, during which we’ll discuss the strong points, as well as the weak points, of this year’s festival. It will be held on Saturday, May 7th, starting at noon, in room 3105 of Pavillon Alphonse-Desjardins, on Université Laval’s campus.
 
You are therefore more than welcome if you wish to give us your feedback on the event!

Feedback on the festival

The numbers are in! We were about 2300 people in the halls of Pavillon Alphonse-Desjardins between April 1st and 3rd! Thank you all for coming to our event!
 
With that said, wether you attended our festival or not, we would like to receive your comments so that we can make our convention even better in the future. To that end, we created an online survey to collect your feedback. However, bear in mind that it is in French.
Thank you for your time!

Nadeshicon 2016 is now over

And so ends Nadeshicon 2016. The closing ceremony is starting as we speak in Salle Hydro-Québec, after which we will be heading to panel A to hear your comments about our event, as well as your suggestions.
We would like to thank all of you who attended this year’s edition of our convention, and hope you had as much fun as we did throughout the weekend! See you hopefully on March 31st, April 1st and 2nd 2017!

Only 20 minutes left before the last day of Nadeshicon 2016!

This morning starts off calmly with the tea ceremony in panel A, then quickly picks up in speed with our guest of honour’s, Aimee Blackschleger’s, third and last show are this edition of our event. It will then be followed by an amazing shamisen performance given by Ryoko Itabashi, and an autograph session with our guest of honour, in Salle Hydro-Québec and the atrium, respectively. Enjoy!

Dusk of the second day

The second day of the convention is now officially over! Quite the busy day, with a wide array of activities; we hope you enjoyed yourself to the max!
The last day of the event is upon us and, with it, the last show of our guest of honour, Aimee Blackschleger, for this edition of our festival. Of course, plenty of other amazing activities will be held, so be sure to be on the lookout. See you tomorrow!

Survey

You may have noticed that we’ve been handing out a survey at the inscription booth so that we get to know you and your expectations toward our event better. If you didn’t come to this year’s Nadeshicon, or if you just didn’t get the chance to fill it on site, you may find it online(French).
We are very grateful to everyone filling it; it will prove most helpful to make Nadeshicon even better for the coming years!

A mistake in the programme

It would seem we had a little hiccup when we wrote down the programme; as such, it won’t be The Association of Chadô Urasenke Tankôkai of Quebec giving the calligraphy panel at 1pm on Sunday, but Tomoko Kurokawa. Please note however that the Tea Ceremony panel will still be hosted by the Association. We apologize for the mistake.
