Anime Milwaukee (AMKE) convention chair Timothy Huesmann announced on the convention’s official website on Saturday that Anime Milwaukee 2021 will not take place due to the new coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic.
Anime Milwaukee (AMKE) is a three day anime convention that operates at the Hilton Milwaukee City Center and Wisconsin Convention Center in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
The convention had not opened registrations for the event, but attendees who had won Anime Milwaukee 2021 badges at this year’s event will have their badges roll over to 2022.
The event was originally slated for February 2021.
