Whether you’re here to browse comics on sale, play board games, card games, tabletop wargames, roleplay the entire weekend, or track down that collectible you definitely don’t need (but absolutely want), this is the place to be.
Expect a weekend packed with passionate fans, friendly faces, and a marketplace full of everything from dice to detailed figurines. It’s the perfect excuse to get out, geek out, and connect with people who share your passion.
