The story

Indiana Comic Convention in Indianapolis

A three-day pop-culture and comic convention held each June at the Indiana Convention Center in Indianapolis. Originally branded Indiana Comic Con, the event now operates as the Indiana Comic and Pop Culture Convention, with an active vendor floor, artist alley, and celebrity guest programming.

Indiana's largest pop-culture convention began under the name Indiana Comic Con, with records showing the event active under that branding by at least 2013, drawing fans of comics, film, and television to the Indiana Convention Center in downtown Indianapolis each June.

What is special

The part that makes it specific.

01

The place changes

The event underwent a rebrand from its original Indiana Comic Con name to Indiana Comic Convention, part of a broader wave of regional comic conventions that shifted away from the Comic Con label during the mid-2010s, though it remains the same underlying event rather than a competing new convention

02

The mystery stays covered

Its Celebrity Row programming brings film, television, and comics guests to Indianapolis for photo opportunities and autographs, alongside a full artist alley and cosplay contest typical of major regional pop-culture conventions
