Here’s our bumper gallery of photos from MCM Birmingham Comic Con 2025 — the UK’s biggest pop-culture event outside London — which was held over the weekend at the NEC Birmingham from 28 to 30 November 2025.
Fans from across the country flooded the halls for a weekend packed with gaming zones (including the first-ever inclusion of video-games content from EGX via the “Rezzed Zone” and “Leftfield Collection”), cosplay, meet-ups and the usual mix of artist stalls, pop-culture merch and fandom celebrations.
Inside, Cosplay Central was alive with creativity — people dressed as everything from anime icons to sci-fi legends — while the Artist Alley and pop-culture traders offered everything from custom art to rare collectibles.
The vibe was one of pure fandom love: people reconnecting with old friends, making new ones, sharing cosplay tips, and celebrating their favourite shows, games and comics.
This year’s event felt like the biggest and most ambitious yet: the expanded floor-plan helped give everyone more space to explore, meet stars, shop, watch panels or simply soak up the atmosphere. If this weekend’s photos are anything to go by — it was a smash.
