Review of Gloucester Comic-Con 2016

Epic. Very well organised and put together. Could of done with more personalities but Colin Baker still made my 11yr old son shy and star struck! More Dr who next year plz. Dr's and monsters! Atmosphere was electric costumes were fab especially Loki!! What I would say is maybe next year do a package with photo shoots plus autograph of the celebrity as we found it a bit of a conn that we paid for a selfies then an autograph and then a photo with celeb. Accumulating to over £50 .... £20 for shoot, £20 autograph £5 selfies and £5+ for for signing anything u bring with you. So a package would be excellent.

Review of Gloucester Comic-Con 2016

Fantastic event with brilliant energy. We loved it and the kids loved it. Special guests were fantastic and staff friendly and helpful. Lots to keep us entertained, even though some of it was impromptu! Next year maybe some improvements in signage, pa system, main guest talks to be later in the day, and more stalls please! Also maybe an all inclusive vip ticket that got you access to photo sessions/autographs without extra cost? Great effort all round, see you next year!

Review of Gloucester Comic-Con 2016

For a first event at Gloucester it was ok but felt there wasn't enough going on throughout the weekend to keep people there all day

Review of Gloucester Comic-Con 2016

Good atmosphere, good range of stalls. Would have been better with organised talks/events throughout the day but a good first year event. More pre-event info next year please.

Great event for comic book lovers and all things related, great atmosphere with great people all into the similar things...also lots of stalls full of merchandise so bring lots of pennies.

Had a lovely time. Great guests, and some amazing Cosplayers!

Review of Gloucester Comic-Con 2016

This was our first Comic-Con and we thoroughly enjoyed it! The venue is great and the atmosphere was brilliant. It is the first time in years that I have taken my boys somewhere that they have both enjoyed. We will definitely be back next year, but will do the whole weekend rather than just the Saturday

Review of Gloucester Comic-Con 2016

In short, awesome. But if your after more, then I will try and expand upon "awesome".

So I'll start with booking the tickets online. That worked and was easy to do. I printed up my ticket and when I got to the venue I was issued with my weekend pass. My friends had used the Apple app, they got to the venue, had the QR code scanned off the screen and were issued their weekend passes. So the system works. So points straight off the bat.

Then there is the venue. The hall at GL1 was well laid out and a good size. There was a friendly feel to the place. The traders were all happy to chat and answer any questions. And the Q&A area was well placed in that it was part of the venue, but not in the way so to speak. So inclusive and removed all at the same time.

And then there were the cosplayers them selves. All kinds of awesome. Go look at the Facebook page for the event of the photos and videos that are being posted up. Hat off to the Deadpool vs Spiderman dance off. I still think that Deadpool and Harlequin should never be allowed out to play together :) And to the lady dressed as Deadpool with the stonking great New Rock boots, a most excellent outfit & many kudos to you. Just gutted my phone decided that you were way too awesome and blurred the selfie.

As I said, an awesome weekend. I'm very much looking forward to the next one.
