Otafest 2025

Come on down to our main events room, where we spend some time chatting with this year's North American voice acting guests, Allegra Clark, Joe Zieja, Kaiji Tang & Alejandro Saab!

Are you a fan of incredible vocal performances? Do you love watching talented singers compete for glory and recognition? The Ota Factor is where the community's best vocalists come together to showcase their skills and compete for top honours! This exciting event is the perfect opportunity to enjoy amazing live music and support local performers who are ready to give their best performance and sing their hearts out.

Best of all, the qualified panel of judges aren't the only ones who get to choose the singer's fate! You also get to vote and give your favourite performer the Audience's Choice prize! So come and enjoy these brilliant performances from passionate singers that are sure to entertain and move you, as they compete for the glory of being recognized as the best.

Find out who won in our annual AMV contest featuring the best videos as chosen by the judges and audience. Maybe you'll get to see your favourite on the big screen!

[Note: You do not have to attend the AMV contest prior to enjoy this event]

Oh no! The 404s have been transported from Otafest to a comedy show inspired by all the isekai anime out there (and man there are a lot of them!). Commanded to perform by a dementedly chaotic referee, teams of comedians will perform comedy sketches and YOU will determine the winners! It's our last comedy show of the weekend, and we need your votes - which team will survive?

It's been an amazing weekend. Join us as we say goodbye to another fantastic year. Together, we'll go over how much fun we've had over the weekend, including highlights and memorable moments. Our special guests will say their farewells and thank you's to all of you who made this event possible. We'll also recognize the winners of various contests and events that took place throughout the weekend.
