Fans of cult culture came together in Belfast this weekend for the annual Q-Con.
The biggest gaming and anime convention in Northern Ireland kicked off to record numbers this weekend as fans of gaming, anime, cosplay, comics, superheroes and Kpop descended on Queen's University .
Now in its 26th year, the events continue into Sunday, September 1, and will include the Cosplay Masquerade at Elmwood Hall, that will see the best, most creative and amazing costumes on parade.
“All our events throughout each day are aimed to make sure that all audiences have plenty to get their teeth into,” said Ben Harrison of Q-Con.
“On the Sunday we're delighted to make it a day all the family can revel in.
“We know from previous years that parents want to be involved with their children as they all love games – tabletop and video – and they love the whole fantastic world of anime and the imaginative places it takes us into.”
Taking place across the Queen’s campus , including the Whitla Hall, Elmwood Hall, Queen’s Film Theatre, the Computer Science Building and many other venues it is essential to plan your weekend to pack as much in as you can.
Family tickets (2 adults, 2 children) are available at the door priced £20. Doors open 9am-2pm.
