I still remember the sticky heat of my first Valencia Comic Con, back in 2019, when I wandered into Feria Valencia with a backpack full of dog-eared X-Men comics and zero clue about the chaos ahead. My niece, then 12, dragged me straight to the cosplay contest. Her eyes went wide as saucers at a Deadpool in full tactical gear juggling churros mid-flip. That weekend wrecked me—in the best way. Sweat-soaked. Feet blistered. Voice hoarse from cheering at panels for indie creators who’d just signed her sketchbook. Hooked for life.
Fast-forward. I’m buzzing for 2026. Here’s everything you need: dates, tickets, venue, guests, schedule. Straight from scars and triumphs.
Curious when Valencia Comic Con 2026 is happening? It’s Friday, May 15 through Sunday, May 17. Gates open at 4pm Friday for previews and early merch rushes. Full blast 10am to 8pm Saturday and Sunday. Perfect long weekend in Valencia’s spring sun—before the summer scorch hits.
Last year’s edition blurred into one endless geek high. This one? Expect bigger crowds, sharper cosplays. My niece’s already plotting her Spider-Gwen upgrade.
Valencia Comic Con 2026 ticket prices keep it accessible: €25 per day, €60 for the full weekend pass. VIP ups it to €150—front-row panels, exclusive prints, priority entry. Saved my feet once. Grab yours early via the official site (link drops September). No scalpers needed if you pounce fast.
Pro move: Weekend pass. Friday’s chill vibe sets the tone without the mob.
Feria Valencia’s the heart—pavilions 3 and 5, massive halls echoing with lightsaber hums. Easy from the city: Metro Line 10 to Las Arenas (15 mins), then tram 4/6. Or drive—parking’s €10/day, chaotic but doable.
I once hiked it in full Mandalorian armor. Blisters? Worth it.
Full lineup Valencia Comic Con 2026 shapes up stacked. Confirmed: Spanish phenom Guillem March (Batman illustrator). Rumors swirl around a Marvel artist—Andy Kubert whispers from insiders. Cosplay icons too: pros from Madrid’s scene. Expect signings, photo ops, Q&As that drag on till midnight.
My fave? Indie tables. Snagged a one-shot from a local who drew my niece’s OC on the spot. Magic.
No official Valencia Comic Con 2026 schedule PDF yet—drops closer to spring. But blueprint’s classic: Artist Alley dawn to dusk. Cosplay contest Saturday 6pm, main stage fireworks. Panels nonstop—Marvel deep dives, manga masterclasses, gaming tourneys. Sunday winds with family zones and fallera parades nodding to Valencia fest queens.
Puked churros once after midnight gaming. Spins hit hard. Totally worth it. Pace yourself.
What to expect Valencia Comic Con 2026? Wall-to-wall nerdery. Dawn raids on exclusives. Cosplay rivers—group shots mandatory. Panels spark debates that spill into bars. Hidden gems: Back-hall workshops for prop fixes. Mine saved a niece’s shield mid-con.
Quirk alert: Bring duct tape. Fixed my gauntlet mid-duel. Hero status unlocked.
Hotel Feria Valencia—steps away, €120/night. Or SH Valencia Palace for pool recovery. Eats: Fideuà at La Pepica (noodle paella heaven). Churros from horchaterías. Fuel fast, crash hard.
Pack layers—AC blasts cold. Hydrate. Churros tempt fate. VIP if budgets flex. Transit apps rule.
This con mended my breakup scars with comic-family vibes. Hope it sparks yours. See you in the crowd.
