MAY 17-18
MINNESOTA STATE FAIRGROUNDS
Springcon
Comic Convention Wars continue in the Minneapolis/St. Paul area.
Just two weekends after the first-ever Wizard Minneapolis Comic Con, the 26th Annual MCBA SpringCon Comic Book Celebration takes place this Saturday and Sunday at the Minnesota State Fairgrounds inside the Grandstand. Hours are 10AM to 5PM both days with tickets only available at the door, and a savings if non-perishable food item(s) are brought to donate.
The friendly and longtime show (which was scheduled well in advance of Wizard’s date) is more comic book than “pop culture” oriented (i.e. no wrestlers attending) and features 100,000 square feet of dealer space and some 250 different local and national comic book creators, along with dealers from all over the United States, free panel discussions/programs, costume contests, and an art auction.
Notable comic book creator guests include Dan Jurgens, Adam Hughes, Bill Willingham, Pablo Marcos, Carlos D’Anda, Ale Garza, and many more.
Factoids! Things You Should Know:
GUEST CREATOR PANELS - will be running all on both days! It's a great way to get up close and personal with some of your favorite comic book creators and best of all no extra ticket is required and all SpringCon Guest Creator Panels are FREE!
FREE PARKING! Follow the signs when entering the fairgrounds via the Snelling Avenue main entrance.
FREE GRAB BAGS - st 500 Attendees on Saturday & 1st 250 on Sunday!
FREE Creator Autographs!
ONCE AGAIN, the MCBA will be supporting three charities at SpringCon. They are the Minnesota Lupus Foundation lupusmn.org & the Comic Book Legal Defense Fund cbldf.org and the Minnesota Food Shelves 100% of all proceeds go directly to these charities!
