Hold on to your seats – the MCM Expo Manchester Comic Con is ready for lift off! Next month sees the UK’s most famous comic con arrive in Manchester, bringing the best in pop culture entertainment to the city for the first time.

Held at Manchester Central – formerly G-MEX – on 30 July, the very first Manchester Comic Con will bring all the magic of London’s MCM Expo to the North West. Whether it’s major games publishers such as Nintendo or leading film studios like Universal; top comic artists or sports star special guests; sci-fi collectables or cosplay competitions, there’ll be something there for everyone!

Already hosting hit shows in London and Birmingham, the MCM Expo Group thought it was high time that Manchester got to experience the fun of a comic con. So if you’re a fan of sci-fi; videogames; movies; comics; cosplay; manga or anime, make sure you come along to the Manchester Comic Con on 30 July.

And last but not least – KIDS GO FREE! For the inaugural Manchester Comic Con, we’re offering free entry for children aged 10 and under if accompanied by a full paying adult, up to a maximum of two children per paying adult.
