ExpoManga

Heroes Manga Madrid, born as Salón del manga de Madrid and later on, ExpoManga (officially Spanish: Salón Internacional del Manga de Madrid) was a Spanish anime and manga convention held annually in Madrid, it was coupled with the Heroes Comic Madrid (known previously as Expocomic) and it became the second largest anime convention in Spain after [1][2] the Salón del Manga de Barcelona. Organised at first by AEAC, was later on bought by the Dutch company EasyFairs. It was held in several locations during its first years, it settled in Madrid's Casa de Campo fair's ground, to be moved into the IFEMA fair grounds since 2017. The 2019 edition was cancelled citing organisation problems, promising to come back in 2020.
