COME JOIN THE FUN FOR THE WHOLE WEEKEND!

This year we're at the Cleethorpes Leisure Centre

TICKETS ARE NOW LIVE on the Fantastic Books Store

DON'T FORGET TO CHECK OUT OUR KIND SPONSORS BELOW, THEY'RE ALL FANTASTIC!

FantastiCon 2018 planning is well underway! Keep up to date with our plans by following us on Twitter (@FantastiCon2018) and Facebook (FantastiCon2018) and by keeping an eye right here on the official website!

We like to think that we run a different kind of convention to most and we hope that those of you who have attended in the past think we've done just that.

This year's event will take over the beautiful Cleethorpes Leisure Centre, where we'll continue the 'bigger and better' trend with loads of traders, computers, tabletop games, virtual reality systems, a dedicated NERF and drone racing arena, 3D printer displays, retro gaming, Lasertag arena and of course our stage which will feature panels, Q&A sessions, special guests and live musicians.

That, twinned with our famous 'free biscuits and soft drinks for everyone' pledge, will ensure that FantastiCon 2018 is the biggest and best yet!

FantastiCon 2018 is already shaping up to be bigger and better than ever before!

Attractions include but are by no means limited to;

• An escape room!
  
• Did we mention NERF wars? Yes, genuine all weekend NERF wars for all the family to enjoy.
