The Comic Con Jukebox brought live sets from rappers Ikka and Dharmik alongside indie artist Gini, while the Comedy Showcase with Jaspreet Singh and Onkar Yadav packed the stage with pop culture humour.
Cosplay, as always, stole the show. Characters from Demon Slayer, One Piece, Witcher, Batman, Spider-Man, and Naruto filled the venue, with over 250 cosplayers competing across both days. The Indian Championship of Cosplay Gurugram Qualifier saw Vandana Sharma’s stunning Warcraft Orc cosplay take the top prize and a spot at the ICC Finals 2026.
The NODWIN Gaming Arena also drew competitive crowds throughout the weekend. Comic Con India CEO Shefali Johnson captured the spirit perfectly — watching superheroes and anime characters walk through Cyber City made for some genuinely special moments.
