t-mode anime and gaming convention

Event Details

Pre- registration $35 until the End of January. Then the price goes up.

Originally launched as a videogame convention that hosted console gaming tournaments, T-MODE (Tournament Mode) continues its transition into a hybrid event that fuses together the powerful appeal of anime with the high energy entertainment of videogames. Highlights of T-MODE events include concerts, featured videogame tournaments, a masquerade variety show, a masquerade ball, live panels, the Otaku Bazaar with vendors and artists, and much, much more.

T-MODE has also brought together an exciting lineup of guests. Our guests range from notable voice actors and cosplayers, to independent bands, and various talents within the anime and gaming industry.

As a smaller convention, T-MODE also prides itself on having a friendlier and more personal atmosphere that can sometimes be lost at larger conventions. At T-MODE, you'll have close interaction with our guests, have fun with friends in a relaxed environment, be introduced to new acts and events, participate in a variety of interesting panels, and be welcomed by a friendly staff. T-MODE is only small in size, not in what we aim to offer to our attendees!
