Macoco in the Glass hall at Manga Comic Con 2026

Manga Comic Con is above all colourful. It inspires young audiences to read and enjoy literature with a wide range of exhibits ranging from manga, comics and anime to fashion, cosplay and drawing accessories as well as computer and video games. New releases, signing sessions, workshops and cosplay contests make Manga Comic Con a unique festival experience. As part of Leipzig Book Fair, Manga Comic Con plays host to a very special mix of participants, including the fan community and interested book fair visitors.

Manga Comic Con combines all the key factors for the success of your brand:

Meet readers, creatives, media representatives, and business contacts where interest is highest—and turn personal conversations into valuable connections, leads, and long-term customer relationships.

Present your new releases and ideas to an audience that's open to new things, shares your content, and gives you valuable feedback.

Take advantage of more than 300,000 visitors, enormous reach on social media and a strong media presence to boost your visibility. Make the Leipzig Book Fair a catalyst for reach and cultural relevance.

Reach a dedicated community of readers who are keen to buy new releases. Capitalise on the annual growth in purchasing power at the fair to boost your sales success.

Expand your reach with our programme of events, as Leipzig liest extends far beyond the exhibition grounds. Take to the stage across Leipzig with your authors and brands – from bookshops and cafés to clubs and cultural hotspots.

‘The community is taking the opportunity to interact’

"The interactive experience at our stand has been very well received by visitors and offers them something new at Leipzig Book Fair. Despite the five halls and the large crowds, MCC and Leipzig Book Fair have a cosy, friendly atmosphere.“ -- Eva Moll, Event Manager/Marketing, Blackfire
’Mangaka and fans, face-to-face’

"The mangaka were happy – also about the opportunity to talk directly to their fans and receive such great feedback. That’s a big advantage of the MCC: the proximity between the authors and the readers as well as face-to-face dialogue.“ -- Sarah Müller, Marketing Manager, Altraverse GmbH
’Outstanding event for the manga community with sales from day one’

„Leipzig Book Fair is of great importance to us because our field of business, manga, is very well represented here. We look forward to being here every year. The fair has established itself as the outstanding event in the manga community for years and cannot be compared with other fairs. The fair is also characterised by the fact that it is open to cosplayers from Thursday. This also has a positive impact on business compared to other trade fairs." -- Sadik Musubahu, Event Planning Director, Z-Zero GmbH
’Valuable feedback’

"Generally, there is plenty of interest and we can connect with our specific target group here. Personally, I am impressed by how much effort the cosplayers put into their costumes and how respectfully everyone treats each other. MCC seems to be a safe space for the community." -- Sandra Türpe, Entertainment Procurement, Impericon – IC Music and Apparel
’Excellent location with direct access to target group’

"We have direct access to our target group. It's not just fans of horror, science-fiction and fantasy who can easily find us here. We also made new contacts in anime and manga as we are of course featuring them here. Financially, the MCC has also been very positive." -- Philipp Jerulank, Head of Marketing, Ulisses
