Taking place on Saturday, 20 June, this year’s event, run by Stars of Time, features an amazing array of guest stars including Warwick Davies (Star Wars, Harry Potter), Brian Blessed (Flash Gordon, Star Wars) and Ben Whitehead (Wallace & Gromit). The event will also feature prop displays, photo opportunities and virtual reality experiences.
Fans attending are invited to dress up as their favourite TV, film or other fictional character and will be able to enter a free cosplay competition during the event.
A lightsaber training experience and tribute to Kermit the Frog will also be available alongside a number of independent traders for those looking to snag some memorabilia of their favourite film, TV show or video game.
Frances Yeo, STEAM Museum Manager, said: “We’re really excited to welcome the Stars of Time team back to STEAM for what is set to be another excellent Comic Con.
“There’s always an amazing atmosphere around the place when this event rolls around and it’s great to see everyone so happy and enjoying what they love.
“There’ll be some great guests and some fantastic displays so there really will be something for every fan.”
Tickets for the event can be booked on the STEAM Museum website at £17.50 per adult and £13 per child.
