Okay. Let’s get one thing straight.
Comic Con Africa 2025 is happening. It’s going to be massive. And I have something you want.
I’m giving away 4 double tickets to the Thursday show (28 August 2025) — which means you and your plus one could be strolling into the geekiest, glitziest, most glorious celebration of pop culture on the continent for mahala.
Yes, I’m serious.
Yes, you deserve this.
All you have to do?
👇👇👇
Comment below and tell me who you’d take with you if you win.
That’s it. That’s the post.
So, What’s the Big Deal?
Glad you asked.
Let me paint a picture for you. You’re walking into Johannesburg Expo Centre, eyes wide, wallet trembling, surrounded by merch booths, cosplayers, lightsabres, dice sets, Funko Pops, and probably at least three people dressed as Spider-Man from three different universes.
This year is wild. We’re talking:
- The biggest Artist Alley yet — with over 150 creators in their own hall (yes, an entire hall). Signings, sketch battles, live draws, weird and wonderful art. Heaven.
- A brand-new Book Nook featuring authors, a pop-up shop, cosplay tie-ins, and an actual tavern. Like, for real.
- Comics, comics, and more comics. Complete your collection, get rare covers, and get them signed on the spot.
- Exclusive gear, plushies, stationery that slaps, and more collectibles than your shelves can handle.
- Celebrity guests. Panels. People in wings. Gamers. LARPers. TikTokers. Magic-wielders. Everyone.
It’s four days of pure fandom chaos — and you could be there on Thursday without paying a cent.
What’s the Catch?
There isn’t one. Just comment below with the name of the lucky human (or alien, I don’t judge) you’d take with you. Winners will be announced Saturday, 23 August 2025.
You don’t have to solve a riddle, write an essay, or battle me in cosplay chess. Just name your partner in geekery.
So go on — tag your ride-or-die. Your cosplay twin. Your emotionally stable bestie who will stop you from spending R4,000 on a replica sword you’ll never use.
See you at Comic Con Africa 2025!
