Germany’s sci-fi, film, comic book and videogame fans are making space in their diaries for after news that MCM Hannover Comic Con will be back for a second show on 20-21 May 2017.
The announcement follows the success of June’s inaugural Hannover Comic Con, which saw almost 10,000 people come through the doors of MCM’s first ever German event.
Tickets for next year’s return visit will go on sale to the public from mid August 2016.
“We’re very pleased with the turn-out for our debut Hannover Comic Con,” said MCM managing director Bryan Cooney. “It’s a solid foundation to build on for the future and we’re looking forward to returning next year with an even bigger and better show.”
Headlined by The Big Bang Theory star Melissa Rauch, the first Hannover Comic Con’s special guest line-up included Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D‘s Nick Blood and Luke Mitchell and Fringe, Elementary and Lord of the Rings actor John Noble.
The news comes as MCM Manchester Comic Con prepares to take place in the UK on Saturday date?, featuring fifth Doctor Who Peter Davison and his old nemesis Terry Molloy, aka iconic villain Davros.
Elsewhere, Warwick Davis, whose movie credits name check top franchises such as Star Wars and Harry Potter, will appear.
