Little Falls Welcomes Upstate NY Comic Con

Comic book fans, collectors, and families are invited to experience a full day of classic comic culture at the Upstate NY Comic Con, taking place on Saturday, June 20, 2026, at the Elks Lodge in Little Falls.

Little Falls, NY – Running from 10AM to 4PM, this affordable, family-friendly event offers admission for just $5, with free entry for children 12 and under, making it an accessible outing for fans of all ages.

Kevin Volo, event organizer & Little Falls native, has cultivated this event to offer a true comic book experience. Upstate NY Comic Con brings together collectors, fans, and creators in a celebration of comic book culture. Designed as a traditional, “old-school” comic convention, the event focuses on what enthusiasts love most—comics. Attendees can browse a selection of comic books from various vendors offering everything from Silver Age classics to modern titles and indie releases.

The event features family-friendly fun and entertainment with engaging activities throughout the day, including:

• Cosplay Contests (Kids & Adults): Guests are encouraged to dress as their favorite characters and compete for prizes, including cash and comic book awards. (Organizers remind guests that this is an all-ages event, so family-friendly cosplay is requested.)
• Hourly Giveaways: Attendees have the chance to win free comics, original artwork, signed memorabilia, and toys throughout the event. Prizes will be awarded every hour beginning at 11AM and are valued from $60-$100!
• Photo Opportunities: Cosplay participants and fans can enjoy memorable photo moments during the show.
• Lawn Games: Corn hole, giant Connect 4, hula hoops & other free outdoor games available for guests.

Supporting the local community is an important part of this endeavor for Kevin. He believes in giving back. Upstate NY Comic Con encourages attendees to bring non-perishable food donations for the Little Falls Food Bank and/or contribute to the Little Falls Municipal Pool Maintenance Fund through NEXT Herkimer. In appreciation, donors will receive a free comic book.
