The third annual Madison Comic and Pop Culture Expo is set to take place on August 9-10, 2025, at the Alliant Energy Center in Dane County. This two-day event promises to be a celebration of all things pop culture, attracting fans of various genres and ages[1][2][3][5].

One of the highlights of the Expo is the vast array of vendors offering unique artwork and merchandise related to various 'fandoms'. Attendee Carrie Hanson praised the uniqueness of the offerings, while Emma Crowley emphasised the opportunity to meet friends who share the same interests[4].
The event is not just about shopping and socialising. It's also a place to discover new things about one's area of interest. Many attendees were seen dressing up in cosplay costumes as their favourite characters, adding to the vibrant and lively atmosphere[6].
In addition to the shopping and cosplay, the Expo also features a daily cosplay contest to see who has the best outfit[7]. Celebrities from TV, film, anime, comics, and professional wrestling were present at the event to meet, chat, and take pictures with fans[8].
