About Daisho Con

WHAT IS DAISHO CON?

Daisho Con is a Central-Wisconsin based anime- and gaming-conference.

Following in the footsteps of other anime conferences like NoBrandCon, Daisho Con aims to provide a yearly gathering where friends can gather to discuss anime, comics, video games, table-top games, sci-fi, or whatever else crosses their mind.

Even with a small-town Central-Wisconsin atmosphere, Daisho Con aims big. Daisho Con will host multiple events, before and during the contest to bring out your inner geek, and panels so you can learn more about your favorite topics!
