Our history

TimminsCon is Northern Ontario's premier pop culture and fandom convention, bringing together fans of comics, science fiction, fantasy, anime, gaming, cosplay, movies, television, collectibles, and more for an unforgettable weekend of entertainment and community.

Produced by Northern Ontario Expo, TimminsCon was created with the vision of providing Northern Ontario with a world-class convention experience while celebrating the creativity, passion, and diversity of fandom. The event welcomes attendees of all ages and experience levels—from lifelong collectors and dedicated cosplayers to families looking for a fun and interactive weekend together.

Each year, TimminsCon features an exciting lineup of celebrity guests, voice actors, comic creators, artists, authors, exhibitors, vendors, cosplay competitions, interactive experiences, gaming, panel discussions, workshops, photo opportunities, and exclusive attractions designed to create lasting memories for every guest.

More than just a convention, TimminsCon serves as a celebration of imagination, creativity, and community. It provides a platform for local businesses, artists, creators, charities, and community organizations to connect with thousands of attendees while showcasing the incredible talent and spirit found throughout Northern Ontario.

As TimminsCon continues to grow, our mission remains the same: to deliver a safe, inclusive, and family-friendly event that inspires people of all ages to embrace their passions, discover new interests, and build meaningful connections with fellow fans.

Whether you're searching for rare collectibles, meeting your favorite celebrities, showing off an incredible cosplay, or simply sharing your love of pop culture with friends and family, TimminsCon offers an experience unlike any other in Northern Ontario.
