Holiday Matsuri is the festively themed Anime, Gaming, and Cosplay convention that brings holiday cheer to Orlando, Florida! Each December, thousands of fans gather to celebrate their favorite fandoms—anime, video games, cosplay, and more—all with a signature seasonal twist.
Our 3-day celebration takes place at the Orange County Convention Center and the Hyatt Regency Orlando, where attendees can explore a wide range of programming including cosplay contests, interactive panels and workshops, gaming tournaments, holiday shopping, and festive dances.
From daytime fun to unforgettable nightlife and 18+ events at the Hyatt, HolMat offers something for everyone. It’s the perfect place to connect with fellow fans, express your creativity, and celebrate the joy of the winter season—together.
Holiday Matsuri 2025 will once again take place at the Orange County Convention Center (West Concourse) and the Hyatt Regency Orlando, located side by side on International Drive. The Convention Center will host most daytime programming, while the Hyatt continues to feature our legendary 18+ nightlife, parties, and late-night content. Both venues are connected via pedestrian crosswalks and are surrounded by walkable hotels, dining, and attractions—making it easy to stay close to the fun all weekend long!
