GalaxyCon Returns to the Richmond Convention Center

GalaxyCon, the largest independently owned consumer and fan engagement company, is thrilled to bring GalaxyCon Richmond back to the Greater Richmond Convention Center for four action-packed days, March 19-22, 2026. The region’s premier Festival of Fandom celebrates comics, pop culture, sci-fi, fantasy, anime, gaming, cosplay, and more – and this year promises to be the biggest and most spectacular Richmond event yet.

Kicking things off with a ribbon-cutting ceremony at 2 p.m. on Thursday, March 19, GalaxyCon Richmond opens its doors to fans from across the galaxy. Joining GalaxyCon founder Mike Broder for the ceremony will be Terry Farrell, John Wesley Shipp, David Howard Thornton, and Lou Ferrigno (credits below).
