MCM Comic Con London May 2027
The UK's biggest pop-culture and gaming convention returns to ExCeL London on 28-30 May 2027 with a Gaming and Role Play area, cosplay, guests and exhibitors. Day tickets from GBP 36.
MCM Comic Con London is the largest pop-culture convention in the United Kingdom and a fixture for gamers, cosplayers, anime fans and comic readers from all over Europe. The May 2027 edition runs from Friday 28 to Sunday 30 May 2027 at ExCeL London in the Royal Docks, the venue the show has used for more than a decade.
The show is built by ReedPop, the company behind PAX and EGX. Alongside the exhibitor floor, artist alley, photo ops and the main stage, MCM has a dedicated Gaming and Role Play section where visitors can try new and upcoming titles, join tabletop sessions and meet publishers and indie studios. Cosplay is a big part of the weekend, with the Saturday crowd usually the busiest.
The guest line-up for May 2027 has not been announced yet; MCM typically reveals film, TV, voice-acting and games guests in the months before the show.
Tickets are already listed on the official site: Friday and Sunday day tickets are GBP 36, Saturday GBP 45, a 3-day weekend pass GBP 99, VIP tiers GBP 230 and GBP 300, and a kids' day ticket (ages 5-10) GBP 7, all including VAT and service fees.
For players from Croatia and the region, MCM is the easiest big-con trip in Western Europe: direct flights to London from Zagreb, Split, Belgrade and Ljubljana, and ExCeL is a short DLR ride from the city centre. Combine it with a visit to London's gaming shops and arcades for a full weekend.
