Due to renovations for the 2020 Summer Olympics in Tokyo, Comiket will have less space at its normal venue of Tokyo Big Sight for the two events this year and Comiket 98.
The event’s usual Tokyo Big Sight venue will serve as the main press center and international broadcasting center for the 2020 Tokyo Olympics from July 24 to August 9, 2020.
The event ultimately will not implement an entrance fee for Comiket 96, but organizers have not yet announced plans for Comiket 97.
The official website for Comic Market (Comiket), Japan’s largest event for selling self-published dōjinshi works, revealed on June 9 that Comiket 98, the summer Comiket for 2020, will be held during Golden Week on May 2-5 of that year instead of the usual August.
