Founder of Anime NYC Peter Tatara announced on Wednesday that this year’s Anime NYC event will require proof of new coronavirus disease (COVID-19) vaccination and mask usage for all participants.
The Anime NYC Powered By Crunchyroll convention collaborated with livestream shopping platform NTWRK for an online version of the Anime NYC event last November.
The New York Comic Con (NYCC) event staff is planning on holding an in-person event from October 7-10.
New York City uses the Excelsior Pass as a way for residents to provide proof of COVID-19 vaccination.
