Burp your baby Grogus and bring them to our Family Zone where you can experience games and activities the whole family can enjoy. 

NEW FOR 2024:

Explore the world of art and animation with demos and workshops all weekend long. Join pros like Joe Wos as he teaches you how to draw cartoons and discover the world of storytelling with U Cre-8. Check the schedule closer to the show for details.

Oh no, Pikachus have taken over FAN EXPO. Think you can catch 'em all? Count all of the Pikachus hidden around the convention center on Sunday, June 9 and once you think you've found them all, report the number back to our trainer team to be entered to win a special Poké-prize. You'll have to look carefully though, some are hidden in peculiar places.

Cap off your Pikachu Pokémon Hunt with a screening of Pokémon: Detective Pikachu (2019). Join us on Sunday, June 9 to dive into the world of Pokémon trivia, win prizes, and watch our fave electric mouse figure out what's going on in Ryme City.
