Every year, at the end of July, the Adelaide Convention Centre gets taken over. AVCon, Adelaide’s own Anime and Video Game convention plays host to a massive weekend of events, competitions, stalls, artwork, games and colourful costumes. With Steampunk and Lolita fashion parades, a Cosplay competition (where everything has been handmade!) there is a lot to take in just walking around. Gaming includes LAN, Nintendo consoles (from NES to Wii), Sony PlayStations (1, 2 & 3) Xbox and Xbox 360 set up around the convention centre for you to walk up and challenge yourself and other people to a game. At $40 for a weekend pass, it’s an awesome weekend for everyone’s inner geek.
