Grand Forks Comic Con

Ok maybe I got ahead of myself a little, before you get to the guests at GFCC this year you will happen upon our official charity for 2026 Grand Forks OUT and Proud/. Now you may be asking yourself how can I help support GF OAP this year.

First up is a raffle for a medium sized Dream Duffel/. The amount of storage in these things is no joke, if you have a kid in dance or other activity, if you're a cosplayer, or you just pack heavy for trips you will want to make sure and get in on this raffle! Second up is a tattoo raffle just like last year. Stop by Gabie.tattoos/.tattoo booth through out con to buy those raffle tickets. Winner for both raffles will be announced near the end of the day on Sunday!

Accessories, wigs, makeup, and costumes these are the tools our Cosplay Guests use to transform. Stop by Saturday and check out our Cosplay Guests Divie, Theo, and Krystal, then stop by again on Sunday and see the differences! You can also check out their panel on Saturday for your cosplay 101.

Our fearsome foursome of guest artists this year. Jesse, Dylan, Dave, and Travis bring a wide range of styles and focus areas of art to the regional small press comic community. Stop by their booths see the great variety of work they have with them or take the opportunity to commission something!

In 3 short weeks Grand Forks Comic Con will be here!! We are down to the last spot in our Warhammer 40k team tournament. Talk with your friends and enemies and put together a team of 5 to take the field!! Link in the comments!

Alright so maybe I fibbed about wrapping up the thanks yesterday.

We also have to give the Alerus Center/ a lot of thanks. The entire team at the Alerus Center is instrumental in helping us pull off the event every year from planning to the setup crew putting in the sweat equity we wouldn't be able to do it without them!

Wrapping up the thanks for now with our silver and bronze sponsors.

We have Jen Ekberg - Loan Officer/ and Tavern United Grand Forks/ who will be hosting Dylan's Drink & Draw/ Saturday evening of con!

Alright so this is a double dip, this is both a combination of keeping the thanks going for sponsors as well as a sponsor announcement.

Grand Cities Games has quietly been sponsoring con the last few years with out many people realizing it. When you stop by and play Magic the Gathering or any of the organized board games you have had a chance to win prizes, and those prizes have been sponsored by Grand Cities Games! This year we wanted to make sure they got recognition for it.

Continuing our thanks with our gold level sponsors.

We have Probitas Promotions/ and Gate City Bank/!

Keeping the thanks going with our platinum level sponsor.

We have DHI Sweet Street/ and Development Homes, Inc/ .

Continuing with the sponsor recognition as we count down to con.

Our diamond level sponsors, we have Midco/ and Dream Duffel/ who is providing a raffle item for our charity this year as well as helping to sponsor the cosplay contest.
