All Roads Lead Here
For two unforgettable days every fandom in Sri Lanka converges at one destination where dreams feel real and passion feels shared. The spirit of CCx has always been about unity and belonging bringing together thousands who find joy in the same worlds of art gaming and storytelling.
The event has grown into a homecoming for Sri Lanka’s creative communities bringing together fans of anime gaming comics film and digital art in one vibrant festival. From meticulously crafted cosplays to handmade art and the laughter of fans meeting their heroes CCx captures the spirit of togetherness that defines Sri Lanka’s pop culture scene.
“Colombo Comic Expo is all about coming back home” said Raveen Wijayatilake CEO of Gamer.LK. “CCx has become a place where every fan feels welcome and every creator feels seen. It’s not just about characters or costumes it’s about belonging. When people walk through those doors they know they are part of something bigger.”
Confidence Takes the Stage
The cosplay ramp walk will once again take center stage as over 150 participants showcase incredible craftsmanship, passion and confidence. Cosplay at CCx has grown far beyond mere competition or performance. It has become a symbol of self expression and acceptance, a reminder that creativity can bring even the shyest of individuals into the spotlight. Every costume tells a story of dedication, friendship and the belief that imagination has no limits.
“I used to just watch from the crowd and dream of having the confidence to be up there. But this community gives you courage. You realise you’re surrounded by people who understand you and cheer you on no matter who you are,” shares Naveen, a cosplayer. What started as quiet admiration has become a moment of pride and belonging, reminding every fan that courage often begins with a costume.

Beyond the stage, the Artist Alley stands as the beating heart of creativity. Dozens of illustrators, designers and creators will fill its aisles, each booth telling a story of passion and perseverance. The air hums with colour and conversation as fans discover art that speaks to their favourite worlds and the artists who bring them to life.
