The 2009 Genki logo drawn by Søren Michelsen.
Genki 2009 was considered a beta-con by the organizer group, Genksters.
Genki was originally intended to debut in August 2010, but a sudden offer from Valby Kulturhus to use their building for free pushed the plans ahead of schedule. The Genksters took the opportunity in order to test out ideas for events and workshops and to get a better feel for making a convention, so that Genki 2010 could become a great success.
Weekend tickets were sold for a mere 75DKK making Genki 2009 the cheapest Danish weekend convention to have been held thus far.
Planning
Planning for Genki 2009 began in late March/early April, roughly two months before the con. Due to the tight schedule, the organizer group would have bi-weekly meetings to update eachother on personal progress, discuss ideas, and to plan the con. In addition to that, the main organizers would have almost daily online-meetings; discussing the finer details of the con planning as well as what issues to bring up at the next big group meeting.
Programme
Despite only two months of planning, Genki 2009 featured a full programme for the entire 55 straight hours that it was open. Among these features were:
- a non-stop open Manga Lounge and Anime Cinema
- a Karaoke room
- a live J-rock concert
- four Panels
- three Game Tournaments
- several contests
and much more. For a schedule of events, please refer to this external page.
