Comic Con Scotland is one of Europe's largest pop culture conventions, attracting tens of thousands of fans annually to the Royal Highland Centre in the beautiful city of Edinburgh. The main attraction every year is of course the star guests, and we always endeavour to bring you a variety of exciting names from movies, tv, streaming, gaming, anime and sports entertainment. In previous years Comic Con Scotland has been proud to host the likes of Ewan McGregor, Christopher Lloyd, Jean Claude Van Damme, The Undertaker, Matt Smith, Ian Somerhalder and Alicia Silverstone.
We’re all a fan of something, and Comic Con Scotland is the best place to celebrate all things pop culture. As well as having the chance to meet your heroes, get an item signed or a photo, many guests will also appear live on stage so you’ll get to hear directly about their new projects and previous roles.
Outside of the celebs you can get your picture taken with some of our unique props and set builds; watch the fabulous cosplayers strut their stuff on stage (or join them); test yours skills in our retro and modern gaming areas; or browse through the unique gifts in our trader and artist areas with a huge show floor for the perfect shopping experience for everyone in our community.
The shared fandoms and sense of community is central to everything we do. Fans from over 40 countries and all over the UK come together every year in Edinburgh to share their love of comics, fantasy, sci-fi, gaming, horror and cosplay. To find and bond with like-minded individuals who share their interests.
We’ll continue to grow and evolve this event as a place you can celebrate your community fandoms, discover new ones and most of all have fun!
