AniZona is an annual anime convention based in Arizona that takes place annually on Easter weekend (from Thursday to Sunday), hosted by AniZona Inc., a non-profit volunteer organization. The inaugural convention, also the first full-scale anime convention to be held in the state, occurred between March 25 and 27, 2005 at the Embassy Suites in Phoenix. Popular events include a Cosplay Contest, Karaoke Contest, and an Anime Music Video Contest. AniZona features numerous programming items involving voice actors in the anime industry, generally from North America, as well as webcomic artists, though the main Guest of Honor for the first convention was Yoshitaka Amano, and at least one Japanese guest, manga artist Haruka Miyabi has been confirmed by the convention for the third AniZona. Sponsors have included distributors in the North American anime industry as well as local businesses in the Phoenix metropolitan area. After two years at the Embassy Suites Phoenix North, the third AniZona was held at the Phoenix Marriott Mesa and Convention Center in Mesa, Arizona, April 5-8, 2007. Unlike most anime conventions, there is no at-door registration at the door; all registration is to be handled prior to the convention, through the Internet or by mail. In addition, there is an attendance cap. Pre-registration for AniZona 1 was capped at 800-850 attendees, although actual attendance was estimated at higher due to a limited number of at-the-door registrations sold.
