Dynamic Duo set to take over Vancouver, August 5-7, 2016
The powerhouse teams behind two of this summer’s most eagerly anticipated events —the Vancouver Comic & Entertainment Expo at BC Place and Anime Revolution at the Vancouver Convention Centre — have teamed up for a one-two punch of galactic-level pop-culture entertainment over the weekend of August 5-7, 2016!
“It might have been a coincidence that both events booked into Vancouver on the same weekend but, in the end, it was a happy coincidence for everyone,” says Vancouver Expo’s Ben Marasco. “We’re excited to announce the launch of a Weekend Combo Pass for both Vancouver Expo and AniRevo, so fans of anime, cosplay, comic books, TV and movies can experience the fun and fanfare of both events whenever they want over the course of the weekend.”
Early Bird Weekend Combo Passes are valid for both events/venues from Friday, August 5 to Sunday, August 7 and can be purchased online via the Vancouver Expo and Anime Revolution websites.
