Review of Brighton Beach Comic Con

Overall rating: 1 Verified review

This was the worst convention I have ever attended, it was tiny for the venue size there were around four sellers who charged there own rates (they are there own business) which is completely fair. But to be charged £14.50 just to enter the event? It was ridiculously over priced, I've been to many conventions before I know you pay for the experience. The experience was awful and not worth what I paid, I would rather have stayed at home. I would like a ticket refund.

Given that a lot of us paid full price when there are discounted tickets available everywhere suddenly in the run up to the event was a slap in the face.

it was too hot! in costume, carrying a prop it was too hot!


no cosplay competitions? ouch.

Tickets over priced.
Event smaller than anticipated. 1 x small hall with craft stalls. Venue too small and cramped for crowd volume.
Paying customers made the atmosphere. Well done guys!. Great costumes.
Arrived at 12pm. Unfortunately, Bumblebee was on lunch for the 20 minutes that we stayed. :(???

Nice easy going , slightly crowded experience. Everyone seemed to have a good time there. It was good to be able to step out on the sea front for a bit of fresh air when needed. I would go again

after doing loads of cons over many years i have never been to something so bad the set up was just stupid someone in a wheelchair was in the isle i was in and a lady with a pushchair was in the same isle and both of them could not pass because there was no room because it was way to small people who stopped at a stall just held up everyone the isle needed to be twice as big .the price was a joke for 8 pound more you can go to london lfcc for the day and that is so much bigger,the guests every single guest that our party of 6 people had come to see had cancelled . no info given on the site friends sent questions in about guests only for there questions to be deleted,I managed to get round the whole place in around 30 mins and 10 on that was talking to a old friend .
so the things they should look at is a bigger venue,wider isles,better guests i know people can cancel but it was a joke every big star canceled ,and the biggest thing they need to do is listen to the people who have said comments because people say about the width of the isle because if something happened a lot of people would not been able to get out you need you look at you health and safety .
so all in all i can say well done for being the worst event i have been to in the last 20 years

This was a rather scaled down version compared to previous years with it all being in just one room. A lot of the merchandise was very similar (how many pop dolls do people need for Christ sake!!) and not so much of the independent artists that I've seen at these sorts of events.
I was done within an hour!

We paid for a merchandise ticket, didn’t receive the 2 comic books nor the tote bag.
Small venue all crammed in extremely crowded between stalls and very hot due to the amount of people crammed in a small space.
Would not go again.
