Oz Comic-Con Melbourne Returns This June Long Weekend

Melburnians will soon have the opportunity to unleash their inner geek as Oz Comic-Con, Australia’s premier pop-culture expo, explodes to life at at the Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre this June 11-12.

Forget the Footy – there’s no better place to spend the long weekend than the Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre gets taken over by all things gloriously geeky, collectible and cool.

There’s knockout headlining stars – including John Barrowman (Torchwood, Doctor Who, Arrow), Lucy Lawless (Xena: Warrior Princess) and Robert Patrick (Terminator 2: Judgement Day), alongside a guest list of fandom favourites such as David Anders (iZombie, The Vampire Diaries), Timothy Omundson (Psych, Supernatural), Ingrid Oliver and Samuel Anderson (Doctor Who), Paul McGillion and Rachel Luttrell (Stargate: Atlantis) and David Giuntoli (Grimm), there’s something for fans of every genre. Each guest will be taking part in professional photograph and autograph opportunities across the weekend, as well as exclusive question and answer panels each day.

Oz Comic-Con isn’t just about the celebrity guests, however. The show floor will be packed with exciting and exclusive activities and features, including cosplay central, the family activity zone, and a bustling artist’s alley. With world renowned comic artists – including Nicola Scott, Mike Choi, Wolfgang Bylsma and Tom Taylor – in attendance, fans will be able to meet the hands behind their favourite works, as well as get their favourite comics signed. The Victorian finals of the Australian Championships of Cosplay will also be held at Oz Comic-Con Melbourne, with the winner securing a place in the national finals in Brisbane this September.
