If you love anime, gaming, cosplay, comics, and all things geeky, then the next item to check off your summer bucket list is OMG!Con, returning to the Owensboro Convention Center this weekend, June 14-16.

Celebrate All Things Fandom

OMG!Con is a celebration of you – the fan - whether you're a die-hard anime lover, a retro gamer, a comic book collector, or just someone who loves an excuse to wear a cape in public.

Panels, Artists, Vendors & More

As you might expect, OMG!Con will include panels, tournaments, artist alley, vendors galore, and meet-and-greets with voice actors, creators, and cosplay stars.

Speaking of cosplay, I hope you bring your A-game, because OMG!Con has built a reputation for showcasing some of the most creative costumes you’ll ever see – and we expect nothing less from YOU!

OMG!Con has plenty of love for gamers, too. There’ll be console and tabletop tournaments, including everything from Smash Bros. to Magic: The Gathering. You can either compete or just sit back and spectate in the video game lounge.

And, of course, the best thing about OMG!Con is the community. It’s a welcoming, inclusive atmosphere where friendships are made, fandoms collide, and you can totally nerd out without judgment.
