ThunderCon is a two-day event, strategically placed on the fall convention circuit. This year, our event will be at the Canadian Lakehead Exhibition from September 21-22, 2024. We aim to capitalize on seasonal tourism when Thunder Bay is a popular destination, celebrated for its spectacular fall colour displays. Positioned before Halloween, it encourages more fans to attend the Con in cosplay, enhancing the fan experience. There will be celebrity and cosplay guests for fans to interact with, gaming demonstrations, informative how-to lectures, and Q&A sessions, bringing all forms of fandom to life. With the wonderful support of our sponsors, exhibitors, and talented cosplayers, ThunderCon will certainly continue to grow as one of the premier events of its kind in Northwestern Ontario. Join us and get your geek on!
