Last weekend I attended KupoCon at the BCEC in Birmingham, UK
As you can imagine it's like a Comic Con for Final Fantasy enthusiasts. A little more about the event via their website:
"What?
KupoCon is simply a Final Fantasy fan event, made by the fans of Final Fantasy. If you have a love for the series, or any of the games that make up the series, you have a home at KupoCon. Our event differs from a typical convention. You�ll feel like you�re surrounded by friends as soon as you arrive. Many describe our event as a giant Final Fantasy themed birthday party!
Where?
KupoCon is a travelling event. We want to try and reach as many fans of the series as possible, so we�ve moved the event around since its inception. We�ve successfully held events in North America, Canada and Europe."
I went by myself and had a wonderful time, and wanted to share it with you. Many here - like myself - are die hard fans of some of the early games compared to present day. However I did not feel that it was a FFXV event. It felt very much a Final Fantasy event.
There were special guests from the Square Enix & Kingslaive world, TriPom cards (Triple Triad) and a Masquerade Ball in the evening! Not to mention the hundreds of marvellous cosplays and special Kingsglaive screening the next day.
I figured where better to nerd out about all this than here
I was wondering how many here had heard of this event before, or something similar. And how interested you would be in attending an event were it closer to you?
