UppCon was a Swedish anime and manga convention held annually in Uppsala.
The first of the conventions was held in 2001, at the vintage cinema Slottsbiografen.
[2] The conventions usually lasted for three days, from Friday to Sunday, where people with similar interests for example met up to watch anime, compete in cosplay-contests and play videogames.
Many organizations had put up tables to display products they had for sale.
Most of them sold imported goods from Japan, such as manga, anime, figures, dolls, clothes and candy such as Pocky.
