Application for a fanbooth

Application period

The application period for DoKomi 2027 has not yet been determined. Once it has been, the information will be added here.

When and where will DoKomi 2027 take place?

DoKomi 2027 will take place from July 9-11 at the Messe Düsseldorf exhibition grounds and the adjacent Congress Center Süd. In 2026, we utilized over 235,000 m² of space, occupying not only Congress Center Süd but also exhibition halls 1, 3, 4, 5, 9, 10, 16, and 17. Each hall features a distinct theme, providing space for a wide variety of program items and activities.

The venue is further enhanced by the adjacent Nordpark, which offers diverse photo opportunities. It also benefits from Düsseldorf's unique status as home to Europe's third-largest Japanese community and a multitude of Japanese companies.

Address: Stockumer Kirchstraße 61, 40474 Düsseldorf

Who can apply for a fan booth?

Special, reduced rates apply to fan booths because we aim to support smaller artists and projects by giving them a platform at DoKomi. Consequently, applications are open exclusively to artists offering their own original works and products, as well as individuals, groups, and organizations from the fan and community sectors. Below are some examples of projects we would love to showcase:

  • Fan conventions
  • Content creators from the scene (YouTube channels, Twitch channels, etc., e.g., VTubers)
  • Online blogs
  • Fan communities & local fan meetups (including thematically relevant Discord servers)
  • Cosplayers & cosplay photographers
  • Music projects (bands, singers, artists with a connection to anime and Japan)
  • Gaming communities
  • Authors
  • German-Japanese associations
  • Indie designers
  • And much more.
