Big, bigger, biggest! Those are the keywords for the upcoming summer edition of Heroes Dutch Comic Con. Apart from the regular Saturday and Sunday, our doors will also be opened on Friday night for the Preview Night. That means there will be even more to see, do and experience. We have never welcomed so many special guests, the gaming area is bigger and better than ever with the introduction of Heroes Gaming and there are countless merchandise stands in the dealer hall. Be sure not to miss this!
Preview Night
Start the weekend early with our Preview Night, a limited-access evening filled with exclusive programming you won’t see during the regular show days. From panels and activities only available Friday night to first looks and unique meet-and-greet moments.
This year’s Preview Night includes an exclusive Baldur’s Gate 3 panel featuring voice actors Samantha Béart, Dave Jones and Theo Solomon. Plus, be among the first to meet Dan Fogler, Tom McKay, Luke Dale and Kamui Cosplay. Test your knowledge during our pub quiz, discover new treasures in the Dealer Hall, or dive into a tabletop game session with fellow fans.
Special guests
Every edition, we try to invite several loved actors and comic artists so that visitors get the chance to meet their favourite. This weekend, no fewer than 15 (voice) actors, 11 professionals from the comic industry and 6 professional cosplayers will be present. Fans of Supernatural can look forward to the arrival of Jared Padalecki, Misha Collins and Genevieve Padalecki. Doctor Who fans will get their fix with the arrival of David Tennant and Billie Piper. Breaking Bad actor Dean Norris will also be present to meet his Dutch fans.
Gaming
We’re proud to unveil the upgraded Heroes Gaming area! This summer, you’ll get a sneak peek at our completely reimagined gaming zone, more immersive than ever. You can look forward to even more activities, tournaments and experiences in the Gaming Area. This makes the area bigger than ever. There is a new adventure stage where visitors can follow panels around themes such as Dungeons & Dragons and Trading Card Games. It also includes a Tabletop (boardgame) Area. From beginner to advanced gamer, this is the place to be for all gaming fans.
