Join us at Paseo Nuevo in Downtown Santa Barbara, for a FREE, all-ages event as we bring LGBTQ+ fandoms together for an afternoon of connection, creation, and joy! Chosen families and allies are welcome! QTCON (Q for Queer; T for Trans; pronounced “cutie” because we are) is a Comic-Con celebrating LGBTQ+ fans and creatives of comic books, sci-fi, fantasy, anime, gaming, and related popular media. This year, QTCON 805 will feature drag cosplay performances, an Artist Alley, a community cosplay competition (with youth and all-ages prizes), a panel discussion, 360° photo booth, and more!
