FAQs What is ScottyCon? Created in 2019, ScottyCon is CMU’s own anime convention meant to showcase many of the anime/game related clubs in the CMU community.

What is happening at ScottyCon 2022?

This year, ScottyCon is bringing back popular activities from 2019, as well as introducing some new activities. Attendants will be able to browse a large artist alley of artists from CMU and participate in activities like plush sewing and charm making. There will also be panels throughout the day on topics ranging from Japanese tea ceremonies to isekai animes. We will also have arcade, tabletop, and fighting games that you can play throughout the day.

Is the event open to the public?

Yes, ScottyCon 2022 is open to the public. That means students from CMU, Pitt, and members of the greater Pittsburgh community are free to come. All our activities are family friendly and enjoyable by people of all ages. The only requirement is that attendants dress appropriately for a family-friendly event.

Is there an admission fee?

This year, ScottyCon is not charging an admission fee.

Everyone is welcome to come and enjoy our activities at no cost.

Are masks required at ScottyCon? Yes, our event is mandating masks for this year. If you refuse to wear a mask inside the venue, you will be asked to leave.
