Organiser Steven Howard said: “Our debut event took place in May and was so well received that we simply had to do it again. We are hoping this forthcoming event will appeal to even more people and put Buxton and The Devonshire Dome on the Comic Con map.”

There will be plenty of photo opportunities with costumers/cosplayers including Captain Jack Sparrow, Batman, Captain America, Iron Man, and of course Ghostbusters.

For those who like to dress for the occasion there will a cosplay competition and for Pokemon Go fans there will be 4 Pokestops all day so there will be lots of Pokemon to catch.

Steven added: “It’s always hard to produce a sequel but I think with a few surprises in store, hopefully we have something for everyone.”
