The countdown has begun. Game Con Canada 2025, powered by Telus, is just two weeks away, and fans across the country are getting hyped. Every year, GCC gets bigger, bolder, and more immersive. Now, with the 2025 event locked in for June 13 through June 15 at the Edmonton EXPO Centre, organizers have dropped all the must-know details.
A Star-Studded Lineup for Gamers and Pop Culture Fans
This year’s celebrity guest list is already creating buzz. Matthew Lillard, known for his roles in Five Nights at Freddy’s and Scooby-Doo, will be a major draw. He’s joined by cosplay sensation Alyson Tabbitha, who’s also the official host of the GCC 2025 cosplay contest. Fans of Grand Theft Auto V will recognize Steven Ogg, and Mass Effect players will be excited to meet Mark Meer.
The guest list doesn’t stop there. Expect meet-and-greets, autograph sessions, and panel discussions from big names in the gaming and pop culture universe. Whether you’re into games, movies, or cosplay, the celebrity experience is part of what makes GCC special.
Esports Tournaments Are Taking Over the Stage
One of the biggest reasons fans head to GCC is the esports action. Game Con Canada 2025 is bringing serious competition this year. Tournaments will spotlight top multiplayer games like Valorant, Marvel Rivals, Fortnite, Super Smash Bros., and TEKKEN 8. Some competitions will be high-stakes while others are just for fun.
Even better, Fortnite will have a free play area, letting fans jump in without the pressure of a tournament. The vibe is competitive but friendly, and the main stages are expected to be packed with energy all weekend.
Board Games, TCGs, and Tabletop Adventures Await
It’s not all digital at GCC. Tabletop gamers will have plenty to look forward to. There will be open board game areas, tabletop RPG campaigns, and trading card game (TCG) events across the venue.
One highlight is TAP GAMES hosting Magic: The Gathering events featuring the upcoming Final Fantasy Universes Beyond set. It’s a dream combo for fans of both franchises, and a great place to meet fellow players or pick up a few new cards.
