It's that time of year again! C2E2, a clever word play of the Chicago Comic and Entertainment Expo, will be in full swing beginning April 6th at the McCormick Place. It's a pop culture convention catering to fans of comic books, anime, cosplay, TV and movies. At C2E2, you can meet your favorite writers and artists, attend a panel discussion on hot topics, enter a gaming tournament, dress up as your favorite character or get a photo op with a celebrity. It's a pop culture fan's dream.
Since its humble beginnings in 2010, C2E2 has grown in popularity, hosting over 70,000 visitors in its 3 day run. C2E2 is one of the city's best annual conventions that appeals not only to fans of the Chicago comic book scene, but also provides family friendly events for kids as young as a year old.
