Anime Weekend Atlanta (AWA) is both the name of an anime convention geared towards Japanese animation and comics held in the Atlanta, Georgia area, and also the name of the LLC that operates it. Since the first convention in 1995, AWA has become one of the most populated/attended anime conventions in the United States. The event is held for 3 days in the fall, starting on a Friday and concluding the following Sunday.

Current

The convention has changed venues multiple times primarily to accommodate ever-increasing attendance. So far, only AWA 1 has been held within the actual Atlanta city limits.
