The most-anticipated geek event in Nigeria, the Lagos Comic Convention, is set for a return. With just 10 days left, the one-day extravaganza will take place at Landmark Event Centre from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. on Saturday, the 23rd of September, 2023. As always, a star-studded list of Nigerian creators will be in attendance, with most of the companies and studios already billed to appear, or have a major corporate presence.

The attendance count for this remarkable event continues to grow each year, and GeekAfrique will update you on that as the figures become available. The prediction is that this year will be huge, as Nigeria continues to feature prominently on the global pop culture scene.

The theme for this year’s convention involves the rise of AI and concerns around its use, so it is bound to be interesting.

A short statement on the event’s official website reads: “Attending LCC is an exhilarating and unforgettable experience! Make the most of your weekend in Lagos, play and cosplay your way through the city with a variety of things to do. It’s time to get your geek on! We’re looking forward to welcoming you again to this edition of Lagos comic [convention].”
