One fandom, three weekends: India's Comic Con circuit

Navi Mumbai from 28 November, Delhi on 5 and 6 December, Hyderabad from 11 to 13 December: Comic Con India's late-year circuit, how the three editions differ, and how to pick your weekend.

Comic Con India does not do one big national weekend. It tours, and its late-year run stacks three editions across three weekends: Navi Mumbai from Saturday 28 November, Delhi on Saturday 5 and Sunday 6 December, and Hyderabad from Friday 11 to Sunday 13 December. Same organiser, same formula of comics, anime, gaming and cosplay, three quite different rooms. Here is how the circuit runs and what should decide your weekend.

First stop: Navi Mumbai

The circuit opens at the CIDCO Exhibition Centre in Vashi, Navi Mumbai. The organiser's own shop lists the edition across the weekend of 28 and 29 November; BookMyShow is selling the Saturday, 28 November, from 11:00 to 20:30, with a single day pass at ₹699 and a Superfan pass at ₹3,499. Vashi is the practical end of Mumbai for a convention: a railway station next door and the harbour line into the city, so this is the edition the whole Mumbai region can day-trip. It is also the circuit's opener, which makes it the one where the season's special guests, collectibles and merch appear first.

Second stop: Delhi

A week later the tour reaches the NSIC Exhibition Ground in Okhla for Delhi Comic Con 2026, two full days, Saturday 5 and Sunday 6 December. Delhi is organised by Nodwin Gaming and sold on District by Zomato rather than BookMyShow: a single day pass is ₹1,199 and the Superfan pass ₹3,499, and District's page spells out the mechanics, wristband at the box office against your e-ticket and photo ID, re-entry while the wristband is intact, children of 3 and above needing their own ticket. Delhi's is the established northern edition, and the Delhi guide covers the rest of that weekend in the capital.

Third stop: Hyderabad, the long weekend

The run closes with the longest edition: Hyderabad Comic Con 2026, three days from Friday 11 to Sunday 13 December at Bharat Future City in Mucherla, held alongside the Invest Telangana Global Summit and India Joy. Day passes start at ₹1,099 on the organiser's shop, the Superfan pass is ₹3,499, and the hours run 11:00 to 20:30. Three days changes the maths: Hyderabad is the edition to build a trip around rather than day-trip, and the Hyderabad guide gathers the city's December around it.

What fills the days

Whichever edition you pick, the shape is the same: cosplay as the day's real spectacle, gaming sessions, panels and special guests, and the merch and collectibles floor, where the limited pieces move early in the day. The Superfan pass, priced the same ₹3,499 at all three editions, is the multi-day, all-access way in; the day passes are priced for locals, ₹699 in Navi Mumbai, ₹1,199 in Delhi, ₹1,099 in Hyderabad. Buy through the seller each edition names (BookMyShow for Navi Mumbai, District for Delhi, the organiser's shop for Hyderabad), per the rule in buying event tickets in India.

And the circuit keeps going

December is the middle of the season, not the end: Chennai follows on 16 and 17 January 2027 at the Chennai Trade Centre, and Kochi on 30 and 31 January 2027, both on this calendar. Pick the weekend that fits your city, or do what the circuit invites and follow it to a second one.
