Unfortunatly i wont be in a position to organise a winter event this year. Its just got closer and closer and the shops have been incredibly busy through november and december. I couldnt do the event justice so ive had to make the difficult decison for it to not go ahead. We will of course be going ahead with the Summer show run by Peta but its just to much for me atm.

Apologies
Paul

Does anyone have any decent videos of the q&a's on Saturday that they wouldn't mind sharing with us? 🙏😁

The slogan "keep the geeks aglow" for Wigan Comic Con is a playful local reference to Uncle Joe's Mint Balls, a famous confection from the area. The mints are known for their slogan, "they keep you all aglow," which the comic con cleverly spoofed for its own promotion.
This local twist on a well-known catchphrase reflects the community-focused nature of the event. It’s an accessible, family-friendly celebration of geek and pop culture, rather than just a large, commercial comic book show.

Uncle Joe's a fantastic local company gave permission for us to use this slogan. We are extremely gratefull for their kindness
