Central Florida Comic Con

Special to T&T Magazine

Lakeland, FL – On the heels of an unprecedented global pandemic and the postponement of the original event dates in January, the Central Florida Comic Con will return to the RP Funding Center on June 12 and 13, 2021. The con will return with the same zeal for comics, pop culture, cosplay, and celebrity guests as before. Fans can join the fun with Karan Ashley (Power Rangers), Paul Schrier (Power Rangers), Kara Eberle (RWBY), Kyle Phillips (One Piece, My Hero Academia), Ming Chen (AMC’s Comic Book Men), George Lowe (Space Ghost), as well as many others!

“It was important to me that we brought CFCC back to Lakeland in 2021,” said Ben Penrod, president of Nerd Street LLC, which operates CFCC. “We weren’t able to have the con on our usual January date, but we had a few extra months to plan and make sure that this event is even more amazing.”

For those who haven’t attended before, Central Florida Comic Con is an event for fans of comics, toys, TV, film, art, gaming, and all other things considered ‘nerdy.’ It’s a great place to meet with actors, comic book creators, and other fans. Alongside the celebrities and artists, there will be vendors, discussion panels, and other related events taking place at the con. CFCC will also feature a costume contest each day to find the best cosplayers in Central Florida. Tickets are on sale already and start at only $15.

IMPORTANT DETAILS:

Saturday and Sunday, June 12-13, 2021 Saturday 10:00 AM – 6:00 PM Sunday 10:00 AM – 4:00 PM
