New Delhi, 10 November 2025: The Pink City is set to host a landmark celebration of creativity and fandom as Comic Con India announces its first-ever Jaipur edition, scheduled for January 4–6, 2026. The event will be organized under the aegis of the Government of Rajasthan’s AVGC (Animation, Visual Effects, Gaming, and Comics) Policy, marking a significant step toward fostering the state’s growing creative economy.

Taking place at Jaipur Exhibition & Convention Centre (JECC), Jaipur Comic Con will be hosted along with the Government of Rajasthan’s flagship initiative – DigiFest, transforming the heritage city into a hub of pop-culture and tech buzz. The event will bring together fans, creators, cosplayers, tech enthusiasts, and innovators under one roof to celebrate creativity, exchange ideas, and share their collective passion.

The inaugural Jaipur edition of Comic Con aligns with the Rajasthan Government’s vision to empower youth and creative professionals across the state. It serves as a launchpad for artists, illustrators, and storytellers, while nurturing a vibrant digital ecosystem.

Commenting on the announcement, Mahavir Pratap Sharma, Convenor TiE Global Summit and Past Chairman, TiE Global, said, “We are delighted to have Comic Con debut in Jaipur alongside Rajasthan DigiFest × TiE Global Summit 2026. This collaboration, supported by the Government of Rajasthan, under the Rajasthan iStart Program aims to promote local talent under its state AVGC Policy focuses on promoting local talent and driving employment generation by leveraging platforms like Comic Con to showcase Rajasthan’s creators, studios, and startups in animation, gaming, and comics. We thank the Government of Rajasthan for its continued support and vision in nurturing innovation and youth engagement. The addition of Comic Con to this landmark event will further enhance the spirit of celebration, creativity, and collaboration that Rajasthan stands for.”

Jaipur’s mix of heritage, creativity, and youthful energy makes it the perfect setting for Comic Con’s newest home. The city has long been known for its artistic heartbeat, from its vibrant streets and historic architecture to the local craftsmanship that continues to inspire new generations of designers and storytellers. Today, Jaipur stands at the crossroads of tradition and modern expression, where centuries-old artistry meets a fast-growing community of young creators, gamers, and pop culture fans. With its thriving festival culture, growing digital ecosystem, and reputation as one of India’s most creative cities, Jaipur offers the ideal stage for a celebration that brings together comics, technology, and imagination under one colourful skyline.

Visitors can immerse themselves in new comic releases, their most loved manga series, interactive fan zones, gaming arenas, and cutting- edge VR experiences. Alongside these attractions, a series of workshops, panel discussions, and interactive sessions will engage audiences with leading comic creators, filmmakers, and industry experts, inspiring creativity and collaboration among fans, artists, and innovators alike. The event will also feature an expansive merchandise zone offering collectibles, apparel, and artwork from global and Indian creators.

Speaking about the announcement, Akshat Rathee, Co-founder and MD, NODWIN Gaming, said, “Jaipur has always struck me as a city built on vivid imagination. From the jharokhas of Hawa Mahal to the mirrors of Sheesh Mahal and the stories etched into the walls of Amer Fort, creativity lives in every detail here. For years at Comic Con, we have met fans from Rajasthan who told us how they would travel overnight to nearby cities just to experience the event. That passion stayed with us. Bringing Comic Con to Jaipur is our way of celebrating that spirit and creating a space right here in a city that already lives and breathes art, design, and storytelling. There couldn’t be a more fitting place for Comic Con’s Rajasthan debut than the Pink City.”

Shefali Johnson, CEO, Comic Con India, added, “Our goal has always been to bring fans closer to the stories and creators they love. Jaipur, with its rich cultural legacy and youthful energy, is the perfect destination to host our first-ever Jaipur edition. Together with the State Government of Rajasthan and Rajasthan DigiFest, we are creating an event that celebrates both tradition and the future.”

Fans can look forward to the Cosplayers, who will be showcasing their talent and skills across diverse genres including comics, anime, sci-fi, and gaming, along with local favourites like Suppandi, Chacha Chaudhary, Shikari Shambhu and many more.

Over the years, Comic Con India editions have featured global icons such as Ron Marz, Jamal Igle, and Japanese voice actors Kappei Yamaguchi and Natsuki Hanae, alongside India’s leading creators and studios. VR setups featuring Chandrayaan experiences to themed attractions like the Superman Zone and Minecraft Movie booths were created, offering a truly immersive and engaging experience. It also featured special appearances by stand-up icons and singers who make the experience more vibrant and lively.

Now entering its 13th edition, Comic Con India has grown into one of the country’s most anticipated cultural events, blending entertainment and creativity. And for the first time, it will be hosted in Jaipur, marking a landmark step in expanding the reach and popularity of pop-culture fandom.
