Comic Cons in New Jersey

What is coming up in New Jersey

The next shows in New Jersey: Garden State Comic Fest Vineland (November 14 to 15, Vineland), The Horror Rad Mall Market (November 14, Hillsborough), and Collect-A-Con New Jersey (November 21 to 22, Edison).

The big ones, running three days or more at a named venue: Furgeddaboutit at Dolce by Wyndham Parsippany in Parsippany and The Nostalgia Con at Meadowlands Exposition Center in Secaucus.

By kind, that is 7 pop culture, 3 comic, and 2 anime.

Where the cons are

Hillsborough hosts the most, with 4 listings of the 33 we track in New Jersey. Augusta (3), Secaucus (3), Edison (3), and Cape Liberty (2) and others fill in the rest.

In all, 18 cities in New Jersey have hosted a con on our list, so there is usually one within a drive.

When to go

April and March are the busiest months for cons in New Jersey; October and December have had none on our list.

Shows that come back

We have 6 shows in New Jersey listed in more than one year, so they are a safe bet to return: Garden State Anime Fest in Augusta, Super Jersey Comic Expo in Hillsborough, Furgeddaboutit in Parsippany, and Castle Point Anime Convention in Secaucus.

How this list is made

Searching for a comic con near me from New Jersey? This page is that list. Every New Jersey con here was found on the organizer's own website and is re-checked weekly. A show that disappears from its source for three weeks in a row is hidden until it comes back, and the last update date is on the homepage. Dates and tickets always come from the official site, linked on every event page.
