45 Weeks to go!
Always a struggle to update when we're in a quiet phase and where the event seems so far away to you for us it's very close! Only thing we can say is get your tickets to be prepared for 2027 as we are almost done with our post 2026 stuff and on paper have like 90% of 2027 sorted it's just that 10% are variables that can literally explode 💥 Anyway enjoy the 5/7 days you have until we warn you of 44 weeks.

Who remembers this anime legend!?

46 WEEKS TO GO!
Might seem far away, but we all know it's not. Halloween and Xmas will be here, and then BOOM SunnyCon is a few weeks away! Exciting times as we will be looking at the venue refurbishments in the next week or the week after, where we get to plan what 2027 will look like with new rooms! We'll give you all a peek too 😜

47 Weeks to Go!
Still undergoing changes, but we're having a week break atm. We figure we're allowed one week off a year, and with 47 weeks away, we feel safe taking one 🤣 However, we have received the footage from stage panels, and starting next week, we will be uploading footage to our YouTube and here on Facebook! So something to look forward to.

48 Weeks to go!

Hooo man, it's been a busy few weeks. Still an absolute ton of updates to be made as we shape up for 2027. All VIP and Premium tickets are gone! Weekend and day tickets are available, and don't forget Chibi is happening in March! As always, we take suggestions, recommendations, and ideas. The best place for this is our email and Discord (https://discord.gg/8T7mMfGeg)

📢Table application update. We have sent out all invoices, everyone who has been accepted has now been contacted and we are currently sending payment receipts to those who have paid.

There are a few who we still need to hear back from (please check spam), but the spots are now all taken, and we have a waitlist of over 600.

Please don't message for individual updates. If you haven't received an email, but have applied, you are on the waitlist. If anyone drops out, we will then refer to the waiting list and you could still receive an email.

Thank you all for applying and for your continued support of the event :)

The endless march of time continues. 51 Weeks to go!

SunnyCon 2027 is now just less than a year away. We've gotten some of the pics and footage from our amazing photographers, and we're finishing traders' applications. A huge thank you to everyone, as we sold out both VIP AND Premium in 12 hours!! This has never happened, as Premium usually takes a few weeks. Immense support from everyone, and we're entering our slumber period where SunnyCon slips into the back of everyone's minds. We already have loads of ideas and plans, and as always, get your tickets in advance, as early sales help us budget for the next year!

We couldn't resist this piece in the auction and had to bid ourselves! Look how stunning this is. It now has it's own place in the living room next to the lamp which gives it a lovely glow at night. So beautiful 😍
