arkadymac.com is glad to be a media partner for AME Fair X at the World Trade Center this weekend, December 13-14, 2014.  For many years AME Fair has been a much-anticipated event, and this year promises to be an even bigger spectacle as fans of  pop culture, gaming and hobbies gather for an experience like no other.  AME Fair X is brought to you by Worldbex Services International in cooperation with UP AME.

 

The action takes place at the East Wing of the World Trade Center, and our lead photographer Bryan was there to cover the first day of AME Fair X.  Tickets are priced at Php 100 and available at the entrance.

The venue is huge and spacious and rather cold, so it won’t hurt to bring warm clothes along.
A large assortment of food and drinks are available at World Bazaar next door, and the AME Fair X ticket gives you access there too.

Our latest member, Kami-kun, is our new photographer and resident meganekko, and we were thrilled to have her join our coverage for her first assignment for arkadymac.com.  We made sure she got to enjoy herself too at AME Fair X.

And because we were sponsors for the event, we were given a complimentary booth.  Made me really happy to see it of course as it made me realize arkadymac.com has come a long way since we started two years ago.  Besides our tarp, we don’t have anything else to offer yet, but hopefully one of these days we can give our readers and those curious about cosplay a reason to visit our booth at events.  For now, we hope you can just pass by and say hi.
