Celebrity Sightings
Capital City Comic Con has invited some heavy star power to join the fun, including Patrick Warburton (Seinfeld, A Series of Unfortunate Events, Family Guy), Jay Baruchel (Goon, How To Train Your Dragon, Chapterhouse Publishing) and Erica Cerra (Battlestar Galactica, The 100, Eureka). You can get your photos taken with the celebrity guests, get their autographs, and hear their stories during their panels.
Epic Entertainment
As well as our two improv shows this weekend, you can also catch our friends Geekenders performing two Nerdlesque shows on Friday night: A Nude Hope and Full Frontal Nerdity! The troupe combines burlesque, geekery, drag, queerlesque, dance, and theatre into their productions, and is always a fun night out!
There is also a live performance of The Dating Game, a Sketch Battle, and a Star Wars Fan Film screening!
Cosplay Creations
Conventions are always a great time to show off your finest cosplay, and Capital City Comic Con is no exception! Dress up and meet up with other cosplayers and fans, then check out the Kids and Adults Cosplay Contest Finals!
CCCC has also invited some amazing cosplay creators to join the action, including Riddle, Evilyn13, and Seattle Avengers!
Ghostbusters of BC and 501st Legion: Outer Rim Garrison
There’s lots of great attractions happening at CCCC 2018, including a D&D, RPG and Gaming Room, Nerd City Tattoo, and Enchanted Fables. Two of our favourites at the convention are the Ghostbusters of BC and 501st Legion: Outer Rim Garrison.
