You’ll find us at Booth 615

Seven halls covering 30,000 square meters might sound like a lot to search through. But you don’t have to. Hall 6 is the one with the medieval market, the merchandise zone, and the large board game and TCG areas. We’re located in the middle on the right, right next to the game tables. Wynn will show you the way.

Why You Should Stop By

An online store can do a lot of things. But there’s one thing it can’t do: let you hold that one card in your hands—the one you’ve been missing for months. That’s exactly why we’re setting up Booth 615.

Nine hours a day, for two days, right in the middle of the hall with the gaming tables. In 2025, 46,000 people attended Zurich Pop Con. This year, we’ll be right in the thick of it, and we look forward to seeing everyone who stops by.

Make a day of it

Nine hours might sound like a lot. But it’s not. Seven halls, cosplayers around every corner, gaming tables, a medieval market—and right in the middle of it all, we’re here.

Our advice: get in early, take a quick tour first, then head over to us in Hall 6. At our booth, you can browse through the individual cards at your leisure, spin the wheel of fortune, and peek into Protecc’s treasure chest. Experience has shown that your backpack will end up heavier than planned.

The lights go out at 7:00 p.m. on Sunday. Until then: Booth 615.
