La Mole Convention is one of the largest comics, fantasy and pop-culture conventions in Latin America, and one of its longest-running — it celebrated its 30th anniversary in 2026, held March 13–15 at WTC México in Mexico City. Where many regional cons lean on movie-studio spectacle, La Mole has always kept comics at its core, and that identity is its signature: it draws a deep roster of comic-book creators alongside pop-culture, film and cosplay guests, and the artists remain the heart of the show.
The 2026 edition brought major comic talent — names like Scott Snyder and Marc Silvestri among the international creators — plus a strong contingent of Latin American artists, voice actors, cosplay guests and content creators. Expect the full convention experience: a large artists' area for signings and original art, an exhibitor floor of comics, collectibles, toys and apparel, panels and Q&As, a gaming presence, and a huge, creative cosplay community with contests across the weekend. For Mexico's comics scene, La Mole is the highlight of the year, and the atmosphere reflects that — knowledgeable, passionate and welcoming.
WTC México — the World Trade Center — is in the Nápoles district of Mexico City, well served by the Metro and Metrobús, plus taxis and app rides, so it's easy to reach from the city's central neighbourhoods. Mexico City International Airport (AICM) and the newer Felipe Ángeles International (AIFA) connect it widely. La Mole runs annually around March; tickets are sold via the official site in day and weekend tiers, with premium options that sell out first, so book ahead if a specific guest or day matters to you.
Mexico City is one of the world's great destinations, which makes La Mole an easy centrepiece for a bigger trip. This is a city of world-class museums — the National Museum of Anthropology and Frida Kahlo's Casa Azul among them — of extraordinary food from street tacos to fine dining, of the historic Zócalo and the canals of Xochimilco, and of the leafy, walkable Roma, Condesa and Coyoacán neighbourhoods. The pyramids of Teotihuacán are a short day trip out of the city.
Practical notes for visitors: March is dry and mild in CDMX, but the city sits at high altitude (around 2,240 metres), so evenings cool off and it's worth taking the first day or two at an easy pace. Bring a charger, comfortable shoes for the halls, and some cash alongside cards. Check the official La Mole site for the next edition's dates, guest announcements and ticketing as they're confirmed.
