The national capital is set to turn into a pop-culture hotspot as Delhi Comic Con returns with its 13th edition on December 5, bringing together fans, creators and cosplayers for engaging performances, interactions and immersive experiences.
To be held at the NSIC Exhibition Ground in Okhla, the three-day annual festival -- launched in 2011 -- has consistently attracted thousands of attendees of all ages with its comic showcases, anime and manga booths, gaming areas, fan meet-ups, and live performances.
The 2025 edition will be headlined by French-Australian actress ChloE Hollings, best known internationally as the voice of Widowmaker in the popular game "Overwatch".

"A major attraction this year will be a range of VR and interactive experience zones. These include the Maruti Suzuki Arena Zone, Crunchyroll experience zone, Android BGMI Panfest, Lenovo Legion Gaming Zone, 'Avatar: Fire & Ash' Experience Zone and the Kinderjoy Experience Zone. Each installation will offer visitors hands-on entertainment, gaming and immersive storytelling," the organisers said in a statement.
