About Lilac City Comicon
Lilac City Comicon is a two-day comic book and pop-culture show in Spokane, founded in 2007 by local artist Nathan O'Brien, whose Lilac City Entertainment also runs Halloween X-SPO each October. The show celebrated 20 years in 2026, and the next edition is set for June 12–13, 2027 at the Spokane Convention Center.
The organizers expect more than 300 exhibitors across 85,000 square feet on two floors, selling comics, toys, art prints, games, action figures and collectibles, with an emphasis on local artists and businesses. Free panels and gaming round out the weekend.
An Adult Costume Contest takes place on Saturday and a Kids Costume Contest on Sunday. Tickets for 2027 go on sale in November 2026, and exhibitor registration opens in March 2027.
