Spiceball Leisure Centre will once again transform into a vibrant hub for fans and collectors, welcoming guests of all ages to immerse themselves in a world of sci-fi, fantasy, and everything geeky. With a huge variety of stalls offering everything from handcrafted goods to rare collectibles, the one-day event in April is a must-visit for any fan of popular TV, film, and gaming.
This year’s highlights include appearances from Lightning McQueen, Bluey, Mario, Luigi, Stitch, and even a gigantic Gizmo. Visitors can snap photos with amazing props, enjoy the green screen photo booth, check out a Pokémon display, pose in the mini Lightning Cars, and play games with the brilliant team at Zepic Games.
For the gamers, there’s a retro gaming zone where you can relive the classics—from pixel-packed platformers to vintage arcade favourites. It’s a nostalgic blast from the past for kids and grown-ups alike.
And yes—free face painting for everyone, including the big kids!
