Comic Con Scotland (Aberdeen) has firmly established itself as one of the standout fixtures in the Monopoly Events calendar, drawing thousands of fans each year to the P&J Live. The 2025 edition was another resounding success — a weekend where film, TV, gaming and cosplay collided in a vibrant celebration of everything pop culture.

As always, the star guests took centre stage. The team behind the event continues to raise the bar, curating a line-up that spans generations and genres — from beloved movie icons to breakout streaming stars. Over the years, Aberdeen has welcomed names such as Karen Gillan, Lea Thompson, James Masters and Bernard Hill, and this year’s roster continued that proud tradition, delighting fans with panels, photo ops and behind-the-scenes stories straight from the source.

But the event’s appeal runs far deeper than celebrity appearances. Comic Con Scotland (Aberdeen) has become a hub for creativity and community. Attendees could immerse themselves in detailed set builds and prop displays, cheer on (or become) dazzling cosplayers, and lose hours exploring the packed trader and artist areas — a treasure trove of unique art, collectibles and curiosities.

Gaming fans weren’t left out either, with retro and modern titles providing a healthy dose of nostalgia and competition throughout the weekend.

What truly defines the Aberdeen Comic Con, though, is its atmosphere. There’s a shared sense of joy that runs through the halls — a feeling that no matter your fandom, you belong. Each year, fans from across the UK come together not just to meet their heroes, but to connect with one another. It’s a reminder that pop culture isn’t just about what we watch or play — it’s about the communities we build around the things we love.
