Gear up to beam into the 11th rendition of WynterCon in September 2024, an esteemed staple in the chronicles of family festivities. This weekend escapade transcends the ordinary, inviting you on an enchanting voyage through the domains of Fantasy, Science Fiction, Pop Culture, and the artistic universe!
Envision a TARDIS, teeming with boundless prospects; that's the essence of WynterCon – a cosmos of activities tailored for beings of all ages and origins. Navigate through an exhibition space reminiscent of Gallifrey's grandeur, adorned with captivating displays, snapshot nooks, and hands-on workshops. Converge with cosplayers, whose attire outshines the binary luminance of Tatooine, and engage with celebrated creatives, from ingenious artists to distinguished authors whose tales vault beyond the confines of mere paper.
Embodying the heart of a quintessential British bazaar, we've convened a diverse assembly of vendors, echoing the allure of Diagon Alley's most esteemed establishments. These merchants stand ready with their arrays of curios and keepsakes, ensuring your journey with us transcends ephemeral moments.
WynterCon embarks on a valiant mission beyond the festivities and marvels. We stand united in support of Sky Creative Sussex (Registered Charity Number 1178076), a lighthouse of ingenuity and education. Your presence contributes to an ongoing series of workshops and initiatives that cultivate growth and inspiration throughout the year.
This edition of WynterCon marks a new chapter with its new venue and location, setting the stage for an even more memorable and extraordinary convergence in the cosmos.
