Today, we take a moment to remember the children who did not come home, honour survivors and their families, and recognize the lasting impact on our First Nations communities.

There is still so much to learn, and reconciliation starts with listening, learning, and remembering.

Hello everyone!

With the current influx of messages we've received this weekend, we would like to take this moment to just reiterate that CaperCon is in NO WAY affiliated with Sydney Comic-Con.

With the names being so similar, it's absolutely understandable that there is a bit of confusion!

CaperCon is its own non-profit running entirely with a group of wonderful volunteers from Cape Breton. Sydney Comic-Con is its own entity.

CaperCon is held annually every year in May at Centre 200. It happened as planned on the last weekend of May this year. The next CaperCon will be held May 28-30, 2027.

Thank you for your time! 💙💜

Yesterday, CaperCon's 4-legged volunteers - Mina, Turbo, and Summer - assisted with loading up the trunk for a delivery to Every Woman's Centre.

Every Woman's Centre is collecting school supplies to help families prepare for the upcoming school year.

We're grateful for Every Woman's Center and the incredible work they do within the community. It is always an honour to support their initiatives. 💙💜

Gotta catch those rays!

This Saturday CaperCon will once again take part in the Pride Parade and we’re calling all you trainers to come join us as this year’s theme is...
Pokemon!

We’re looking for anyone who wants to come dressed up as a character or carrying their favourite plushie to walk with us.
You might not earn any gym badges but you’ll get a good workout nonetheless as it’s going to be a great day for a good walk.

Interested parties can message us ahead of time and meet us at 11:30.
The parade starts at noon and we'll be lining up at Spot #8 just outside Eltuek Arts Centre on George Street.

It’ll be a hot one, so we suggest you dress cool, slather on some sunscreen and a hat and bring some water and a snack!

Ooh… that reminds me, I have to pick up some of those Pikachu biscuits…

We're happy to help, Horizon Achievement Centre!

A huge thank you to CaperCon and to everyone who attended for helping raise an incredible $2,000 in support of Horizon Achievement Centre!

We are so grateful to have been chosen as this year's charity of choice and truly appreciate the generosity and support shown by the CaperCon community.

We had a fantastic weekend connecting with so many people and are already marking our calendars for May 28–30, 2027. We look forward to seeing what CaperCon 2027 will include!
