Atlanta, get your fits and your cosplay ready, because Atlanime Fest is taking over the city this week! The festival returns October 15–18 for year two, and it is coming back bigger — expanding to four days across Underground Atlanta and Monday Night Garage. If you love anime and you love the culture, this is your week, and Atlanta is the only place you need to be while it all goes down.
Atlanime Fest celebrates where Black culture meets anime, bringing cosplay, streetwear, gaming, and music together in one space. That mix is exactly what makes this festival stand out — it is not just about watching, it is about showing up as your favorite character, connecting with other fans, checking out the style, getting into the games, and hearing live music, all with Atlanta flavor all over it for the second year in a row.
Saturday’s main festival at Underground Atlanta will be hosted by Funny Marco, with co-host Pudgieee, so you already know the laughs are covered. The performance lineup is stacked, too: Slim Jxmmi of Rae Sremmurd, Cochise, DRAM, Duke Deuce, Troop Brand, Domani, and Super Duper Kyle are all set to perform. That is a full day of energy in the heart of the city, and Saturday is shaping up to be the moment everybody talks about.
With four days this year, two Atlanta locations, and a lineup that blends comedy, music, cosplay, streetwear, and gaming, Atlanime Fest is making its second year count. Whether you are pulling up for Funny Marco, for Slim Jxmmi and Duke Deuce, or just to be part of a celebration built for fans like you, make your plans now — October 15–18 will be here before you know it, and we will see y’all outside.
