The Impact on Our Community

Heroes Against Hate wasn’t just about fandom, it was about belonging.

With support from The National Lottery Community Fund, we created a free, inclusive space for everyone in Luton to come together through creativity.

From cosplay to crafts, families to filmmakers, thousands joined us to prove that kindness, collaboration, and courage are what make our community heroic.

This was more than a Comic Con, it was a statement: Luton stands united.

4,000+ Attendees

35+ Free Community Events

Luton Comic Con Presents |

Before the big day, we brought Comic Con energy to the community through a series of free creative events across Luton.

From PokéFest to cosplay workshops, every moment helped build confidence, connection, and excitement for the main day.

The road to Comic Con is paved with community

Sponsors & Partners

None of this would have been possible without the incredible support of our partners.

Their belief in community and creativity helped us provide free access, fund local artists, and transform public spaces into places of joy and belonging.

Together, we proved that partnership can make heroes of us all.
