The countdown is almost over! Cyprus Comic Con 2026 returns to the Cyprus State Fair in Nicosia from 2-4 October, bringing together three days of international special guests, comics, cosplay, gaming, live music, film, art, food, wrestling and pop culture from Cyprus and beyond!
Organised by a non-profit, volunteer-driven organisation, Cyprus Comic Con has grown from its first convention in 2014 into a major meeting point for Cyprus’ creative and fan communities. This year's programme stretches across the State Fair with dedicated stages, halls, activity areas and outdoor entertainment throughout the weekend.
International actors, voice actors and creators come to Cyprus
The 2026 guest line-up includes actors Callum Kerr, known for Netflix’s live action series ONE PIECE, The Wheel of Time and Virgin River; Vincent Regan, whose credits include ONE PIECE, Troy and 300; Clive Russell, known from Game of Thrones, ONE PIECE and The Witcher; and Jonny Coyne, with credits including The Mandalorian and Grogu, Preacher and The Blacklist.
Voice acting will also have a major presence, including Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 performers Kirsty Rider, Rich Keeble and Maxence Cazorla, alongside Greek voice actor, dubbing director and translator Dimitris Sarlos.
Comic artists and creators appearing at the event include Tazio Bettin, Ulises Fariñas, Chris Thompson and BakaArts, while pioneering game developer François Lionet, one of the creators behind STOS BASIC, AMOS BASIC, Klik & Play and later game-development tools, joins the programme as a special guest.
From Dragon Ball to Eurobeat: live music throughout the weekend
Music plays a major part in this year's event. Japanese singer Hiroki Takahashi, known for the original Dragon Ball opening theme “Makafushigi Adventure!”, will perform during the weekend, including a special collaboration with Panos Tsaparas and Kate X from RUSTX.
Eurobeat legend Dave Rodgers, whose music became inseparable from Initial D and the worldwide Eurobeat phenomenon, will also perform live on Saturday, while the wider music programme includes bands, DJs and performers across the festival stages.
Cosplay, gaming, film, wrestling and more
Cosplay remains at the heart of Cyprus Comic Con, with the Cyprus Comic Con Masquerade and the Mediterranean Cosplay Championship, alongside international and local cosplay guests, workshops, guest booths and the Cosplay Village. The programme also features gaming tournaments, tabletop activities, artists and exhibitors, the Kids and STEM areas, the Medieval Quarter, Japan + Korea activities and much more.
The Cyprus Comic Con Film Festival returns with international short films, animation, fan films, screenings and the 48 Hour Film Challenge, while Pro Wrestling Cyprus brings live wrestling action to the Outdoor Festival throughout the weekend!
