Monopoly Events - Comic Con Liverpool Reviews 

An absolute outstanding experience!
Extremely well organised and Tons of energy and work put into every single event (fact)
I’ve not missed one since they Began and I’ve had absolutely zero complaints, my only issue is two events per year just isn’t enough..
all the monopoly staff are extremely hospitable, very courteous and go above & beyond to help any queries… I’d personally like to thank Andy & all the monopoly team for their impeccable work and 100% dedication into these events, making them bigger and better every year.. these guys are the real super heroes making our dreams come true (fact) high five to you all

Amazing experience as always, they never disappoint and this year was probably the best year!

Absolutely fantastic! Would 100% recommend going. Guests are top draw and stalls are too. I had a fantastic time and looking forward to going again

This was me and my little families first time at any Comicon. There was me my partner and our almost 2 year old daughter. Was quite a last minute decision for us so only got 11am entry for Sunday but we had the best day! We got to meet the lovely Orlando Bloom who was an absolute pleasure! His queue did take longer than expected but understandable for someone so popular. We loved all the costumes and the props, lots of space to sit and lots of wonderful stalls to check out. Really caught the bug for comicons now and can't wait to do another!

A brilliant event! Even with one bad experience I had with an actor, the team handled it with care and class and took me very seriously. You’re definitely in good hands at the event and there’s plenty to do!

Decent guest line up, staff were great as always. No issues from myself

Stood in ques for hours to then get told the guest is on a panel and to come back later. could barely move felt like show was oversold

Great experience
Brilliant guests
Very much enjoyed Pete Jackson Magic too, made the time go much faster in queue and very interactive! Would be great to see him at other cons

Traveled from walsall definitely worth the journey, amazing comic con loved every minute. Great merch stalls, awesome cosplay, overall perfect day out. I met jared padalecki from supernatural he was amazing, loved it and i didnt have to wait long in the ques as the times slots worked great. Definitely would recommend to anyone who loves comic con and cosplay.

Me and my partner visited both days over the weekend where he got to meet the cast of his favourite film and he couldn’t be happier with that as the guests were all so nice and were more than happy to sign items and chat.

However we encountered so many issues during the day, especially on Saturday. We got let in at 10am with 11am entry tickets and had a pre booked time slot for an Andy Serkis autograph at 11:15, his queue was already wrapping around the building and seemed to be little to no organisation going on. The building was really hot and crowded, and as I struggle standing up for long periods of time especially in heat, a lovely staff member let me use her chair in the queue.

A member of staff came down the queue apologising to everyone and we received raffle tickets to come back for the next auto session as Andy had other things to do which is completely understandable so we moved onto our next time slot for a photo with the Mordor trio. There were multiple queues and no staff member we asked seemed to know which queue was which, and when asked, one staff member rolled her eyes and said she wasn’t dealing with it and went to stand with other staff chatting and laughing. My partner was the one to organise queues and asked people who they were waiting for and told them where to go, this isn’t acceptable when we’re paying customers, he shouldn’t be the one to guide other customers when staff say they don’t want to deal with it.

On Sunday, there seemed to be a calmer atmosphere and my partner had a diamond pass for that day as he had 4 autos and 4 photos.

As we began queueing for a Sean Astin photo, a couple who were deaf were asking questions to the staff at the front of the queue, regarding rules for the photos. My partner who works in event management and organisation recommended hiring a sign language interpreter to make this a better experience for the customer. They were put before us in the queue which isn’t a problem at all, but after their photo one of them walked back to Sean for a solo one, as he didn’t understand the rules regarding one ticket is one photo, this didn’t slow down the process as it took seconds, and Sean was more than happy to take the picture. However the same member of staff from the day before who handed out raffle tickets went to grab the customer and shouted saying he couldn’t do that and making him really confused and panicked. Sean Astin was the one who stood up for the customer and told the member of staff “they’re deaf, they can’t hear you” which the staff looked embarrassed and tried to apologise to Sean, who again was more than happy to take the picture, but didn’t apologise to the customer for shouting in his face. The staff member said they didn’t pay for a second picture but Sean clearly wasn’t bothered about the money and was using sign language back to the customer saying thank you. The couple left looking very confused and we felt this could of gone a lot smoother if there was an interpreter there. The guest and customer should not be put in that situation at all it was completely unacceptable, there were a few other staff around in the photo area and no one said anything, this was a highly uncomfortable situation and I hope this didn’t ruin the experience for the couple.

I bought a pay on the day photo with Billy Boyd just after this experience and as my partner was the only one with a diamond pass I asked if I could use his as this photo wasn’t planned and we had another timeslot next and made clear it wasn’t an issue if I couldn’t, and the response was “I mean you shouldn’t but I don’t care” and I got let through with diamond passes.

Overall it was a good con with great guests, it was just very overcrowded, we didn’t get much time to look around the stalls on Saturday despite only having one auto and one photo. The attitude of some of the staff was absolutely disgusting and made us feel very unwelcome.

Was a great buzz and fantastic guests. The staff were lovely. I felt there should’ve been more selection of food stalls especially outside the venue. We were there the whole day of Saturday annd Sunday and hardly ate a thing purely on the lack of variety. It was frustrating after seeing the Q&A’s in hall 1A (green zone) we all had to leave out the opposite door which took you back into the red zone so we had a bit of a walk back to the green zone if you had anything scheduled there straight after. They are my only gripes. It was crazy busy but all in all we had a great time and will be back.

First time...what an experience. Was so excited to dress up and meet my favorites!! 2 things to consider...if you are having prepaid choose tome slots then divide the lines into 1 diamond 2 the time slot 3 all other prepaid 4 pay that day. Then those who prepaid are given priority. Better sound ....ie. give event staff mega phones or microphones so they don't have to yell. Was nice that panel was broadcast in the auto/photo room but impossible to hear. Was a great first time and I will be back!!

This year's Comic Con was a lot bigger than previous ones, there was definitely enough activities to be busy the whole day and the guests were amazing.

Two things that I found frustrating were the lack of food choices and signs. The "Food Court" had only two vendors open, one selling burgers, one selling a sourdough pizza (£8). They were not prepared for the amount of customers and ran out of soft drinks around noon.
The venues were not colour coded, so we were often confused which venue are we in and which map to look at. there were not enough maps through the areas, the ones on the tvs didn't come up very frequently amd due to the colour coding issues, it was difficult to make out which event takes place in which venue.

an overall map rather than just separate maps of the individual venues would be useful too. especially marking where the food stalls are, toilets, seating etc.

Attended on the Sunday. Had an amazing day. Was even better than Star Wars Celebration last April. Took our packed lunch and water bottles in with no issues. Got the autos and photos we paid for no issues. Even got three more autos on the day. Again no issues. Hardly queued at all. Brilliant event. My daughter and I were judges choice in the cosplay masquerade. Kids enjoyed the Harry Potter potions class. Had the best family day out. Well done on a fantastic event.

Harry Potter Potion class was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! And the experience was FUN! Defo do it again until next time!!...:)
Professor Snitch, he was AMAZING!
Team Gryffindor - Emily W

It was a fun and magical experience

Loved comic con as a whole, but really enjoyed the potion class… so much we did it twice! Lovely staff, funny, bubble and just a great Harry Potter experience for children and adults! Would definitely recommend them being part of each event!

Great Con and Potion Making!
Loads of different vendors and stalls, for good prices.
I also attended a Harry Potter Potion Making Class for the 2nd time, and loved it just as much as the 1st! It's such a great interactive experience, while also getting a break from the hussle and bussle! Would be amazing to see them at the next con, would highly recommend!

Had a fantastic time at comic con! Meeting the guests was amazing, panels were wonderful! Went to The Potion Making class TWICE it was so so good (Ps please bring them back for the next one!) Really enjoyed the arena being added, the added seats wereuch appreciated. Only issues were with the queues for the escalators - making a quite trip back up the stair nearly 15mins - this could have been solved by staff being allowed to let us in the doors which they had been able to do earlier on, instead of making us go through the arena.

I attended my first ever monopoly events back in April of 2023 at comic con Liverpool and I had an amazing experience and I would love to attend more
