November 21st and 22nd have been set as the dates for Anime Festival Asia 2009, as announced on the official website of the Singapore Tourism Board.
Unverifiable reports and fan speculation suggest that this year’s guests may include anime superband JAM PROJECT, among others. Additional updates on the special guests, exclusive events, and other activities will be made public as soon as they have been confirmed.
AFA is one of the largest cons in the South East Asia region, attracting attendees from as far away as Kuala Lumpur, Jakarta, Bangkok, and Metro Manila. A sizable Philippine contingent attended last year’s con to witness Mizuki Ichiro and May’n give their first South East Asian performances.

i’d like to get another VIP pass — depending on the guest, of course. but then again, having the pass was so much more convenient than buying a ticket and joining the queue of d00m, that i might get one anyway regardless of who the guest is!

yup — we went last year; there’s plenty of stuff to buy — mostly toys, figures, and collectibles :)
