Sviniet Geek kultūru! Comic Con tipa pasākums, kurā piedalās cosplay, komiksi, kpop, anime, manga, videospēles, esports.

Katru dienu, parādot biļeti pie ieejas, jūs saņemsiet atšķirīgu aproce. Lūdzu, saglabājiet un parādiet mūsu darbiniekiem savu divu dienu biļeti katru dienu (nezaudējiet to pēc pirmās pasākuma dienas!).

Nav vispārēju atlaižu. Tomēr daži konkursa dalībnieki pretendē uz biļetēm ar atlaidi. Arī bērni, kas jaunāki par 7 gadiem, var piedalīties pasākumā bez maksas.

Nē, bet cosplay konkursa, kpop deju konkursa un mākslinieku alejas dalībniekiem pēc reģistrācijas apstiprinājuma ir jāsaņem biļete ar atlaidi. Videospēļu turnīros, mākslas konkursa un citiem konkursa dalībniekiem ir jāiegādājas biļete par pilnu cenu.

Lūdzu, iepazīstieties ar mūsu satura un aktivitāšu kopsavilkumu, lai piedalītos šajā vietnē. Paņemiet arī pasākuma programmu ar grafiku un pasākuma norises vietas plānu pie ieejas! Mēs pastāvīgi strādājam pie programmas, tāpēc galīgā informācija būs pieejama tikai tuvāk pasākuma datumiem.

There are no age restrictions. Also children younger than 7 y.o. can enter event for free.

You sure can! Cosplay is not mandatory. Even if you are in costume it is not obligatory to participate in the cosplay contest. Cosplay is all about fun and having good time.

Yes, but we have a limited amount of performances we can allow on stage.

Absolutely! We welcome newcomers and even have a special awards category for debutants.

Yes of course you can and very welcomed to!

You can change to cosplay in one of few public changing rooms, but unfortunately in summer where is no wardrobe and no lockers available on site :(   

UniCon is one of the biggest themed community events in the Baltic states with participants not only from Riga but from all around Latvia, Lithuania, Estonia, Ukraine, Belarus, Poland etc. Here you can find the best type of friends - those who share your interests and hobbies!

Unfortunately venue policy does not allow animals (except service animals).  

Yes. We don't prohibit to do that as a lot of other events do. Also there will be Expo Diner and other vendors with hot food for you and there is a large trade center Olympia in 10 minutes walk from the venue. Oh, and we also provide free still water!

Some vendors do take debit/credit cards but not all of them. We do recommend you bring cash with you.

There is a Swedbank ATM at the entrance of the venue. There are lot of ATMs on the ground floor of Olympia trade center as well.

Bring as much cash as your budget allows as the loot is tempting :)

UniCon exhibitors are not allowed to sell alcohol due to the nature of our audience. The venue catering may provide alcohol. If you choose to drink please do so responsibly. Any inappropriate behavior will result in you being asked to leave the event.

Yes. Please ask permission first from anyone you would like to video or photograph and respect their wishes if they decline.

UniCon attracts local press, bloggers and many photographers. By attending UniCon, you give your consent to be photographed and appear on camera. You could end up on www.unicon.lv, our social media pages or on material published by media companies.​

The majority of the panels will be held in English, since a lot of our guests are from other countries. You will find a flag marking the Latvian, Russian and English spoken panels in the online- and print versions of the program.

Harassment of any kind - including stalking, deliberate intimidation, unwelcome physical attention, physical assault and battery, unwanted sexual advances - will not be tolerated at UniCon. If it's illegal outside the convention center, it's illegal inside the convention center. Harassment is grounds for removal from the convention without refund as well as potential legal action. We want UniCon to be safe, open and accepting environment for all Fans, and if you find yourself victim of harassment at the convention please come immediately to the UniCon Info Desk.

This is not correct. Even though traditional and popular Japanese culture is a significant part of UniCon, those themes do not constitute even a 1/3 of events content. And, most importantly, we stand for healthy endorsement of your hobbies!

UniCon is a brand which unites more than 100 volunteer staff members.​

Our primary goal is to promote diverse hobbies and geek culture phenomena in atmosphere of friendship and tolerance. In order to achieve this goal we are holding two major events per year as well as free monthly community activities.

"Jauniešu brīvo interešu biedrība" was founded in 2012 and the first UniCon was held in 2013.

Please contact us through office(at)unicon.lv

We are holding recruiting meetings twice a year, if you follow our social media you won't miss the announcements. Attending the meetings doesn't mean that you automatically will be taken in the staff.
