Paris will indeed be a geek's paradise in 2024! And with good reason: after a 4-year absence, Comic Con will be back at Paris Expo Porte de Versailles from March 30 to 31, 2024. A veritable Mecca for aficionados of comics, manga, video games and more, this event promises two days of total immersion in a world where fiction meets reality. A must-attend event for pop culture enthusiasts, where everyone can express their geek-attitude and share their passions.
While Comic Con is the ideal place to meet the stars of film, TV and YouTube, you can also find exclusive goodies, information and new products on the stands of the various exhibitors. What we really love is the atmosphere: endless debates between fans and questions to creators, meetings with associations, not forgetting Cosplay, the vibrant heart of the event, celebrated through competitions and parades, offering a discount on the entrance ticket for costumed participants.
As for guests, this year's line-up promises to be rich and varied. Ian McDiarmid (Emperor Palpatine in Star Wars), Robert Englund (Freddie Kruger), Anthony Daniels (C3-PO in Star Wars), Kevin Eastman (co-creator of the Ninja Turtles), Jamie Campbell-Bower (Vecna in Stranger Things), Grace Van Dien (Chrissy in Stranger Things), Raphael Luce (young Henry Creel in Stranger Things), Bernard Hill (Lord of the Rings), Richard Dean Anderson (MacGyver, Stargate SG-1), Alfie Allen (Game of Thrones), Seth Gilliam and Emily Kinney (The Walking Dead) and Natalia Tena (Nymphadora Tonks in the Harry Potter saga) will all be on hand to chat with fans. What's more, Comic Con makes a point of celebrating gaming, recognized as a veritable social and sporting phenomenon. Visitors will be able to explore the entire spectrum of video games, from retro games to the latest releases, including the competitive world ofeSports.
Comic Con is not forgetting its roots, either, and is putting the spotlight on artists from the ninth art. The famous Artist Alley will welcome renowned artists from Marvel and DC, as well as showcasing European talent. This creative space is an invitation to discover an array of colors and overflowing imaginations. At the same time,Comic Con University offers a unique opportunity to deepen your knowledge through conferences and masterclasses on the geek universe.
The Geek Market, meanwhile, will be a bargain-hunter's paradise, with an exceptional selection of stands selling vintage and exclusive items. And for total immersion, Comic Con Experiences will offer a variety of surprising activities, from virtual reality to photo shoots, games and shows.
