TO GET CREATING YOUR COSPLAY….
WELCOME TO 
Come and join us for another brilliant weekend at NOR-CON — one of the friendliest comic cons around!
Whether you love Doctor Who, Star Wars, Marvel, DC, Disney, sci-fi, fantasy, gaming, horror, cosplay, collectibles, or you simply enjoy a great day out with something different to see around every corner, NOR-CON is the perfect place to be.
Held at the Norfolk Showground Arena, NOR-CON brings together fans, families, collectors, cosplayers and curious first-timers for a fun, welcoming weekend packed with guests, displays, exhibits, stage talks, photo opportunities, traders and plenty of surprises.
We’re very proud that NOR-CON has previously been voted among the UK’s Top 10 Comic Cons by arts and entertainment guide The List, and described by SciFiNow Magazine as “probably the friendliest convention on Earth”. That friendly atmosphere is something we care deeply about, and it’s at the heart of everything we do. We were also Finalists in the 2026 Norfolk & Suffolk Tourism Awards for “Best event of the year”!
You never quite know who you might bump into at NOR-CON. It could be a Dalek, a droid, a superhero, a Disney favourite, a zombie, a stormtrooper, or an amazing cosplayer showing off months of hard work. That’s part of the magic — every visit is full of unexpected moments, smiles and photo opportunities.
There will also be a fantastic selection of traders from across the galaxy, selling everything from geeky gifts, collectibles, artwork, clothing and merchandise to handmade items, props and cosplay accessories.
NOR-CON is a family-friendly event where everyone is welcome, whether you’re a lifelong fan or just coming along to see what it’s all about. Bring your friends, bring the family, dress up if you want to, or simply come as you are and enjoy the atmosphere.
Each year, NOR-CON is also proud to support charitable causes, helping raise awareness and give something back through the event.
Join us for a whole weekend of guests, cosplay, traders, stage talks, displays and friendly comic con fun at the Norfolk Showground Arena on 26th & 27th September 2026.
We’d love to see you there — book your tickets and come and be part of the NOR-CON family.
