Anime Expo, abbreviated AX, is an American anime convention held in Los Angeles, California and organized by the non-profit Society for the Promotion of Japanese Animation (SPJA). The convention is traditionally held annually on the first weekend of July, spanning the course of four days.
The reason for celebrating National Anime Day as an annual event on April 15 is that anime has grown in popularity over the past few decades.
