No Brand Con

No Brand Con is an annual three-day anime convention held during September at the Holiday Inn Stevens Point - Convention Ctr in Stevens Point, Wisconsin. The convention was founded by members of the University of Wisconsin–Eau Claire Anime Appreciation Society. No Brand Con's name was derived from the closing credits theme of the anime Here Is Greenwood.

History
In 2005 the convention moved to the Plaza Hotel and Suites, which allowed for food sales, and the convention to run for a full 24 hours. From 2006 to 2010 the convention was located at the Ramada Inn Convention Center, until returning to the Plaza Hotel and Suites for 2011. In 2011, the convention brought around $277,000 to the economy of Eau Claire, and held a benefit for the Japanese Red Cross. In 2016, the event relocated from Eau Claire to the Chula Vista Resort in Wisconsin Dells, WI. No Brand Con 2020 was moved from April to August due to the COVID-19 pandemic, but was later cancelled. No Brand Con 2021 was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
