Pensacola Comic Convention

Pensacola Comic Convention (Pensacola Comic Con; formerly known as Pensacola Para Con Comic Convention) was founded in the Fall of 2010 by psychic medium Ericka Boussarhane. The convention is for fans of science fiction, horror, fantasy, gaming, anime, costuming, fan films, and indie films held annually in Pensacola, Florida. The event is owned by Pensacola Comic Convention LLC. The event offers celebrity meet and greets, discussion panels, workshops, film screenings, film festivals, demonstrations, costume contests, and competitions. The event also offers investigations at local historic haunted locations such as the Pensacola Victorian Inn, The Pensacola Light House, the Pensacola Gray House, and the Pensacola Little Theater. A portion of the proceeds of the event are donated to Ronald McDonald House Charities. The convention is the first female African American owed comic convention in the USA.
