MEGGAXP 2026

Michigan’s Entertainment, Gaming, Geek and Arts Experience is BACK for MeggaXP 2026!!! After a 6 year hiatus, we brought MeggaXP back in 2025 for our 10 year anniversary, and we are running it back again for 2026!!!

What is MeggaXP?
MeggaXP is a celebration of all things entertainment, gaming, geek and arts! It’s like a “comic-con” of sorts, except we offer WAY more to do than most cons. We are a completely different EXPERIENCE – hence the name.

What can I do at MeggaXP?
You can do all kinds of things. For starters, there is a vendor room with over 50 vendors setup selling you anything and everything from the world of pop culture. Original art, books, collectibles, toys, models, jewelry, movies, posters, you name it – if it’s pop culture related, it’s there! On top of that, we have huge gaming rooms filled with tons of free to play video games, board games, card games, and more! We also have a cosplay contest at 3pm, and tons of live action game shows going throughout the day! Our event schedule will be posted as time goes on, but know that in the past we have done things like Name That Tune, Geekly Feud, Jeopardy, Star Wars Trivia, Surviving the Line, A Room Divided, and tons more! The best part? ALL of the experiences during the regular show hours are included for ONE PRICE!

How much does it cost to attend MeggaXP?
This event is designed to be affordable for everyone! Adult tickets are $15, high school students are $10, and middle school and younger kids are $5. Military past and present get in free as well! There are also VIP tickets available (extremely limited) that gives you a ton of features and swag, pricing to be announced soon for those!

Where can I get tickets?
Tickets will go on sale on Thursday, April 16th, at 8:00 AM!
