Dealers’ room, Animefest 2018

Dealers’ room 2018

Welcome to the vendors reservation page for Animefest 2018!

Animefest is the biggest event in the Czech Republic related to anime, japanese culture and pop-culture, with increasing number of visitors each year.

Vendor stalls are always a welcome and popular part of Animefest, therefore we are very glad that you are considering your participation at the 15th year, which will be held 18-20 May 2018 in Brno.

What is new for this year:
Indoor stalls will be placed in the A1 hall as before (route between main program areas) Different from the last year, the hall will be closed for night (from midnight to 8am) and guarded.
As part of improvement the quality of the festival we started cooperation with the group Fake Is Sad, which is focused fake goods checking. In previous years we have found fake goods here outside knowledge of vendors themselves. Therefore people from Fake Is Sad will be available to advise both for us, organizers, and you, vendors, as well during the festival. Don´t hesitate to ask them in case of doubt about the origin of any goods. We will try to solve any issues by agreement.

Rules for sale at Animefest

goods on sale must be somehow connected with the character of the festival (if in doubt about your goods, please write to us beforehand)
goods on sale must not mislead the customers (e.g. fakes pretended to be originals, pictures on badges without author´s permission etc.), or break the laws of CR in any way
sale of alcohol and cigarettes is forbidden (in case of special thematic goods an exception can be permitted, e.g. Japanese sweets with alcohol filling etc.)
sale of sharp weapons and dangerous goods (in case of doubt, write to us beforehand, we can solve it together and suggest if it is possible to sell the goods and under which terms). It means especially sale of decorative weapons or accessories for cosplay which can break the safety rules while used improperly at Animefest

If you accept the rules, you can choose the stall category and remember to fill in the registry form at the bottom of the page, then we can assign you with a particular place at Animefest 2018!

There are two vendor categories at Animefest:
