Family Fun: MCM Comiccon

Its that time of year again....Time for Comic con!!! 

I know nerd alert!!! But we are a comic, movie and anime loving family!!
Last year we went to both Dublin comic con and MCM comic con. We just decided to go to MCM comic con on a whim. It was about a month after Dublin comic con and we had such a good time at that so we decided to check it out. We brought Corey as it was free for kids unsure but hoping he would have a good time. 
Now I personally wouldn't say Dublin comic con is totally child friendly, its very busy and crowded and there isn't much for kids to do. And for this reason we were worried MCM would be similar and Corey would be bored or overwhelmed by the crowds. We could not have been more wrong...
MCM comic con at the Rds is great for kids and families. Its free in for kids after 11am and its only 10 entry for adults. We havnt had problems finding on street parking both times we went and the bus stops right outside the RDS so it's easy to get to.
 It has great stands selling everything from anime teddies like our one Punch Man plushie

 to cool t-shirts and art work. There is a wrestling ring with fights going on all day. The kids will love the robot wars fight bots that you can use to play a game of football. There are people dressed as Batman and Starwars characters who are only delighted to stop and have pictures taken with the little and big kids alike! 
The RDS has its own little resturant where we stopped to refuel and feed Logan. And there are several food trucks including an Eddie Rockets outside the venue as well as several resturants just across the street from the RDS so your spoilt for choice.
A majority of the attendies are in cos play so there is plenty to look at just checking out there cool costumes. They even have a brilliant show where you can go on stage and show off your cos play and act out a piece for the audience. There were kids as young as 3 taking part and I must say that it's the highlight of the day!! Corey is determined to get a costume together and join in next year.

It is a great day out and we will definitely be attending for years to come.
