Leeds Comic-Con Star Wars Unleashed 2023: When is it, how to get tickets, lineup

Whether you enjoy strolling through stalls of merchandise, meet and greets with big names, or going all out with a full costume, Star Wars Unleashed is sure to have something for you.

The event, which according to organisers will cater to “originalists two thinks Star Wars begins and ends with the original trilogy” and those who “prefer the latest exploits of characters such as Grogu and Ashoka”.

Leeds Comic-Con - Star Wars Unleashed promises meetings with legendary actors such as Garrick Hagon and Paul Blake who played Biggs Darklighter ad Greedo, AT-AT driver Paul Jerricho, creature actor Mike Quinn, and Rancor keeper Paul Brooke as well as Chewbacca’s own stunt double Arie Dekker.

Sammie Gibben, General Manager of Unleashed Events, said: “It is fair to say this is going to be an out of this world event!  It is a great opportunity for fans of the Star Wars franchise to come along, step into an intergalactic world and meet their favourite characters.”

Cosplaying as your favourite character is strongly encouraged, with Sammie adding: “Coming to the event in costume adds to the fun, however, although this is a Star Wars themed event we are more than happy for you to come along dressed as a character from other genres, such as fantasy, anime and superheroes.  There is also a costume masquerade with some fantastic prizes to be won.”

Other highlights to look forward to include comic book and animation artists and authors  as well as plenty of vendors selling comic books, Funko Pops, toys, collectibles, original art and more.

Sammie continued: “New Dock Hall will be brimming with toys, collectables, posters and comics and you can easily spend your time reminiscing at items you grew up with or the latest toys for your young padawan!”
