Laval Comiccon 2025: Fantasy Fiction and Pop Culture at Place Bell April 26 and 27
After a long post-pandemic hiatus, fans of fantasy fiction and pop culture will gather once again on April 26 and 27 for the 2nd edition of Laval Comiccon at L’Enclav de la Place Bell. This celebration of pop culture, sci-fi, horror, anime, gaming in all its forms, and, of course, comics and comic books will welcome visitors into 25,000 square feet of fun for everyone.
Laval Comiccon is first and foremost a paradise for collectors. With more than 100 retailers and artists present, fans will have the dream opportunity to discover and acquire coveted comics, manga, toys, movies, clothing, original art, and all imaginable forms of fantastic paraphernalia. Those wishing to sharpen their heroic and artistic skills can attend conferences and workshops of all sorts, ask questions, and learn secrets.
The Incredible Hulk himself will be at the event for both days. Star guest, LOU FERRIGNO, the legendary bodybuilder who brought the beloved green monster to life in the hit TV show, will delight attendees with his imposing presence, pose for photos with those daring enough, and sign autographs.
Program Highlights:
On the programming side, great things will happen on Saturday, April 26. The fabulous OVMF (Orchestre à vents de musiques de films / Wind Film Music Orchestra) will take the crowd on a nostalgic journey through the music of Star Wars. Later that evening, the Masquerade, a wildly entertaining costume contest, will showcase amateur cosplayers in their finest outfits, displaying their fabulous talents.
Note that attendees will need an EXPO ticket (weekend or Saturday) to access the Main Events Hall, located at the Courtyard Marriott Montréal Laval (500, rue Lucien-Paiement, Laval, QC H7N 0H6), across the street from L’Enclav.
Cosplay
Some of Canada’s most notorious cosplay groups will roam the grounds. The public will encounter the sinister forces of Darth Vader’s Quebec Imperial Fortress 501st Legion and the heroes and villains of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. As always, fans will be encouraged (but not required) to attend the Comiccon dressed as their favorite pop culture characters from movies, TV, video games, and comics.
The public is invited to visit lavalcomiccon.com for program updates and tickets. Entrance to this fantasy wonderland starts at only $10.
