Comic Con Northern Ireland

Comic Con Northern Ireland began its annual run of events in 2022. Monopoly Events CEO Andy Kleek sourced the Eikon Exhibition Centre venue with an eye on having room for future expansion. The first event took place in September 2022 and sold over half its entry tickets more than a year before the event took place. ==Show features==

Celebrity guests Often guests will choose to visit famous landmarks or attractions in the hosting city, in 2023 Comic Con Northern Ireland guests Elijah Wood, Sean Astin and Bernard Hill visited the famous Titanic Belfast museum as Hill previously portrayed Captain John Smith in the 1997 film Titanic. Cosplay A large part of the event is devoted to the cosplay hobby where members of the public are allowed, and encouraged, to take part in dressing up as characters from popular genres such as film and television. Cosplaying has become one of the most popular parts of many fan conventions around the world and can be used as a platform to showcase the costumer's latest handywork, to show devotion to their favourite characters or engage in role-play with other cosplayers in the same series, as well as to meet new people with mutual interests as themselves. ==Location, dates and notable guests==
