FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
==============================
TWIN TIERS COMIC-CON RETURNS!..AGAIN!...or...STILL?

As many fans and followers may have become aware, the host venue for Twin Tiers Comic-Con was recently purchased and the new owners have assumed control as of August 5, 2026. This has led to much concern, confusion, and uncertainty in recent weeks, and we have so far been unable to address how the new ownership of the event center and mall will affect the planning of our 2026 show. The questions and concerns came flooding into our social media channels, message threads, and emails.

>>Will there be a show this year? Do you have to find a new venue to host? What is going on? Can I have a free table?

Yes. No. Lots of things. And no.

The organizers of Twin Tiers Comic-Con have met with the parties currently responsible for managing and booking the Arnot Event Center. They have no intentions of upsetting the partnership we have built over the past 7 years, and thus THE SHOW WILL GO ON!

But WAIT, there’s MORE!>>
Now that we have confirmation that Twin Tiers Comic-Con will continue as planned, we can report that GUEST ANNOUNCEMENTS WILL RESUME ON MONDAY, AUGUST 31st!
Plus--EARLY BIRD TICKETS WILL GO ON SALE FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 4th!

EARLY BIRD TICKET PRICING WILL BE AS FOLLOWS:
Single-Day Ticket: $18
Weekend Ticket: $23
V.I.P. Ticket Package: $50
Kids V.I.P. Package: $20

From here on out, it’s full speed ahead. It’s going to be a fun ride, so hop on and join us!

We hope to see you this November! 🤘
