Guests

C2E2 2026 is coming—and while our guest list is currently as mysterious as a locked X-File, trust us… big things are on the way. 

We’re already summoning spellcasters, chasing down caped crusaders, and negotiating with galactic bounty hunters to bring your favorite creators, authors, and on-screen icons to Chicago. Whether you’re dreaming of meeting the hand that drew your favorite hero or the actor who brought your fandom to life, we’ve got surprises in store. 

Guest announcements are coming soon—so subscribe to our newsletter and be the first to know when the portal opens!
