About Egycon
Egycon (Arabic: ايجيكون) (stylized as EGYCON or EGYcon) is a speculative fiction convention held annually in Cairo, Egypt. Starting in 2013 with a series of mini meet-ups, the first large scale Egycon happened in 2014. Though starting as an anime-only convention, Egycon's scope quickly expanded to encompass several genres of media. Egycon has had articles written about it in Daily News Egypt, Cairo Scene, Arab News, ComicsGate and IGN. Every year, The Japan Foundation participates in the event.
