About Remcon
What is Remcon?
Remcon Festival is a 3-day event focused mostly around broadly defined fantasy and far-east motifs.
The festival is split across a few main parts, the main of which consists of its attractions. The central element is the Main Stage, which hosts concerts, cosplay competition, and a range of other performances aimed at providing you ample entertainment and that unbeatable convention experience. It’s also impossible to miss a hall dedicated to loud fun, focused around rhythm and dance arcades, as well as separate hall dedicated for the quieter activities, such as table-top and pen and paper games, a dedicated photo studio and much, much more!
Next point on the map is the artist and vendor hall, which housed over 100 stalls last year, allowing you to enrich your collection, directly order a commission from your favorite artists, but also take a food break or get some cold Bubble Tea!
Another noteworthy area is the convention center part of the event, filled with the expected range of panels, workshops and contests, as well as the retro console and computer interactive exhibition area, letting you bring yourself a few or a few dozen years back and experience the charm of electronics of the days past first-hand.
Remcon 2025 is already the 7th edition of the festival, and the 2nd to be hosted on the AMBEREXPO venue in Gdańsk.
