The Central Coast's biggest celebration of everything pop culture
Central Coast Comicon 2024
A Spectacular Success!
Thank you to everyone who made Central Coast Comicon a phenomenal success! We were thrilled to welcome over 4,000 attendees to The Entertainment Grounds on Saturday, 25th of May, for a spectacular day of pop culture celebrations.
This event would not have been possible without the incredible efforts of our more than 600 contributors. Our heartfelt gratitude goes out to our generous sponsors, dedicated volunteers, talented vendors, amazing artists, performers, entertainers, supportive community groups, and the tireless RYSS team. Each of you played a vital role in creating an inclusive celebration of creative talents that truly embodied the spirit of Comicon.
We are also proud to announce that together, we raised over $30,000 for our youth service, Regional Youth Support Services (RYSS). These funds will go directly towards special youth projects targeting Mental Health and Transitional Housing, making a meaningful impact on the lives of young people in our community.
What a spectacular day Comicon was, filled with vibrant energy, creativity, and community spirit. Thank you for being a part of this extraordinary event and for your continued support. We look forward to seeing you all again next year for another unforgettable experience!

Pop Culture for Charity
Regional Youth Support Services is a leading Central Coast Youth Charity based in the heart of Gosford. They took on the Central Coast Comicon event 4 years ago and it has now become the major annual fundraiser. All the proceeds raised at Central Coast Comicon go directly to delivering frontline youth support and innovative engagement strategies to young people between the ages of 12 and 25, and their families in communities throughout the Central Coast.
RYSS is now in its third decade of providing local, intensive case management, community outreach programs, early intervention support, family reconnections, indigenous support programs, events, and activities. RYSS’ longstanding history on the Central Coast means that we possess a deeply grounded understanding of the local needs and diversity across the many communities in the region – an understanding that helps drive our many innovative and focused programs and support strategies.
