The convention typically offers artist alley, cosplay contests, dealers room, Maid Café, masquerade, tabletop gaming, video gaming, and video rooms.[5][6][7] In 2011, the Maid Café benefited We Heart Japan, a charity supporting 2011 Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami victims.[8] AnimeIowa held a fundraiser to benefit Swisher's Miracles in Motion in 2014.[6]

History

AnimeIowa's first convention in 1997 was organized by the SFLIS Wing of Anime and Manga People (SWAMP).[9] Technical issues occurred during the 2008 masquerade and some attendees rooms were relocated to a different hotel due to the Iowa flood of 2008.[7] The 2011 convention occurred during the RAGBRAI bicycle ride.[8] Cassandra Hodges was scheduled to attend the 2011 convention, but died on June 27, 2011.[10] Iowa River Landing was used by both the RAGBRAI bicycle ride and AnimeIowa in 2015.[11][12] AnimeIowa 2020 was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[13][14] The convention later held a virtual event in August.[15]
