Wales Comic Con (WCC; dually-branded as Wales Comic Con: Telford Takeover from 2019–2023 and as Wales Comic Con: Homecoming since 2022) is an annual (formerly tri-annual) fan convention in the United Kingdom, held in Wrexham, North Wales in 2008–2018, and from 2022. From 2019 to 2023, the main event was held in Telford, England, due to demands for a larger venue than in Wrexham, although smaller events returned to Wrexham from 2022, alongside the ones held in Telford. In December 2023, the event organisers announced the convention would no longer be held in Telford, moving to another yet to-be-named venue.
