Step into a shopper’s paradise! Whether you’re looking to complete your manga collection, hunt down that elusive figure, or grab a new print for your room, our Exhibitor Hall is stocked to the brim! We’ve gathered vendors and artists from across the lakes of Minnesota to bring you a massive selection of imports, gaming gear, and plushies that are just waiting for a home. Come ready to browse and leave with a haul.
Video Games
From classic arcade cabinets to the latest consoles, NoriKon's game room has something for every player. Drop in for casual matches, enter a tournament, or rediscover an old favorite.
Tabletop Games
Pull up a chair at NoriKon's tabletop space! Borrow from our library, bring your deck, or roll dice with a new adventuring party.
Charity Cosplay Gala
Hearts & Heroes is our signature charity evening — a night of dinner, entertainment, and community where proceeds go directly to a local cause. Come dressed in your best formal-semiformal cosplay and expect guest speakers, a charity raffle, and a silent auction.
Panels
Laugh through a fan panel, learn a new skill, or discover your next obsession. At NoriKon, panels are where fandoms meet and ideas come alive.
Cosplay
Whether you've been sewing for months or threw together your first closet cosplay, this is your moment to shine. Our showcase celebrates local talent and the characters we love — all skill levels welcome. All costumes must comply with our PG-13 attire and props policy.
