Mark your calendars for an action-packed weekend on Saturday, 22nd March from 10am to 5pm, and Sunday, 23rd March from 11am to 4pm, 2025.
This year, Comic Con will light up Level 6 of The Potteries Centre, right above Yellow by Keep it Local, inviting guests to immerse themselves in a universe filled with beloved characters, interactive entertainment, and exclusive merchandise.
Fans will have unique opportunities to meet and greet iconic figures from beloved films and games, including favourites like Minecraft Steve, Mario, Bowser, and many more. Don't miss out on capturing these special moments with your heroes through unforgettable photo opportunities!

Adding a heart-warming twist, Midlands Air Ambulance Charity will return with a fantastic array of Comic Con-themed LEGO sets, must-have trading cards, and exclusive merchandise, all to raise funds for their invaluable services.

We have a passionate and ever-growing community of pop culture enthusiasts, and this event is a fantastic opportunity to bring like-minded fans together for a not-to-be-missed weekend of excitement and nostalgia".
