MagnetiCon – Townsville Pop Culture Convention

MagnetiCon is a locally organised and operated, family friendly pop culture event that intends to run in Townsville annually.

It is a group of comic book, sci-fi, anime and movie lovers that have banded together to create a truly unique event for the citizens of Townsville. The purpose of this two-day event, which will include special guest stars, cosplay celebrities, and comic book artists, is to raise funds for charity and entertain the masses through cosplay competitions, interactive displays and access to merchandise you’ve only dreamed of.

The name stems from our local region incorporating our stunning view of Magnetic Island from our beautiful city shore. The event itself will take place on the mainland. With an expected attendance of 3000+ guests we hope to bring local vendors some extra opportunities that they may otherwise miss out on due to other events running in June.
