A Family Exploring the World of Fandom Together
Welcome to our Pensacon coverage!
Founded in 2013, Pensacon has become the premier comic book and pop culture convention in Pensacola and the Gulf Coast, known for its welcoming atmosphere and incredible variety. Every time we attend, we’re blown away not just by the amazing guests, creative cosplay, and multi-genre events but also by the inclusive, community-driven spirit that sets Pensacon apart. Their mission—to create a safe, fun, and all-inclusive environment for every fan—truly shines through.
Our Pensacon coverage shares highlights from panels, guest encounters, and unique experiences both at the con and around beautiful Pensacola. Whether you’re a seasoned attendee or planning your first visit, you’ll find tips, stories, and local recommendations to make your Pensacon adventure unforgettable!
