Ganbatte Con Ganbatte Convention Inc. is a non profit organization focused on promoting Japanese media and arts About Us
Ganbatte Convention Inc.

is a nonprofit organization focused on promoting Japanese media and arts in Saskatoon through various events in the year leading to our annual anime convention in July. We are organized by members of the local Saskatoon anime, comic, and gaming communities and are run by dedicated volunteers. HISTORY
Ganbatte Convention Inc. was started in July 2015 due to a desire for a convention promoting the i

deas of Japanese media and arts in Saskatoon. With several years of volunteerism, generous contributions, and hard work from the local community and guidance from other industry members, Ganbatte Convention Inc. has held the convention several times with resounding success. We hope to make our sixth year in August of 2023 an even bigger success and continue to grow with our community and expand our horizons. We look forward to seeing you next year! Ganbatte Artist
