Akuma Anime Market Dunfermline: The Ultimate Anime Takeover

Get ready, Fife—the Akuma Anime Market Dunfermline is making a massive debut at the Kingsgate Shopping Centre! We are beyond excited to bring this event to West Fife on Saturday 30th May. To put it simply, if you live for anime, manga, or Japanese treats, this is the one date for your diary you absolutely cannot miss. We have spent months gathering the best independent traders to ensure this is our biggest anime takeover yet.

What is the Akuma Anime Market Dunfermline all about?

We built this market specifically for the local anime community. Because we know how hard it is to find decent anime gear on the high street, we decided to bring the shop to you. Instead of settling for the same old stock, we have invited specialist traders who will fill the mall with rare finds you won't see anywhere else.

What’s more, the atmosphere at the Kingsgate is always electric during our events. Whether you are a hardcore collector or just starting your journey, you can browse through hundreds of unique items. Our stalls feature everything from official high-end figures to stunning handmade art from local creators. Usually, our debut events attract a fantastic crowd, making it the perfect place to meet fellow fans and cosplayers.

What to Expect During Your Visit

Aside from the shopping, this market is a massive celebration of Japanese culture. Since entry is completely free, it is the perfect low-cost day out for the whole family. Furthermore, the Kingsgate Shopping Centre sits right in the heart of the city. Therefore, you are surrounded by great local cafes and spots to hang out, making it easy to make a full day of it.

Rare Collectables: Finally track down those figures you have been hunting for online.

Cosplay Culture: We love seeing your creativity, so feel free to wear your best outfit and grab photos with friends.

BGCP Comic Con 2026 Tour Schedule: New Venues, Fan Favourites, and a Fresh Approach

BGCP Comic Con is thrilled to announce the first wave of our 2026 tour dates. Following a massive year of events, we are hitting the road again to bring the best in comics, cosplay, and gaming to towns across Scotland.

A New Chapter for 2026 This year, we are evolving how we run our events to ensure we continue delivering the high-quality experiences you love.

• Ticketed Conventions: To support our move into more varied venues (and some returning favourites where operational costs have risen), we are reintroducing ticketed entry for select conventions. This ensures we can maintain the scale and quality of the event.

• ‘Support the Con’ Donations: For our popular Shopping Centre Takeovers, entry remains Free. However, we have introduced an optional "Donation Ticket" for fans who wish to contribute. Every penny raised goes directly back into the event—funding new movie props, arcade machines, and character costumes to make your experience even better.

New Stops & Returning Legends We heard you loud and clear! By popular demand, we are officially returning to Stirling in August at the Albert Halls.

We are also delighted to announce our debut in Fort William this May. Following the incredible success of Inverness Comic Con, we are committed to bringing more events to the Highlands so fans in the North don't miss out.

More to Come... This calendar is just the beginning. We are currently finalizing details for a return to Loch Lomond Shores this summer. We are also working hard behind the scenes on potential dates for Livingston, Dumfries, and Caledonia Park, subject to venue availability and construction schedules.

Fans of Horror and Anime: Keep your eyes peeled! We will soon be announcing separate tour dates for our sister brands, The Blackheart Market (Horror/Alternative) and The Akuma Anime Market.
