CON together: Pop culture events and conventions, March 2023

Moving to Germany has been a wonderful and exciting experience. However, it seemed like there were no conventions or events to revel in the fandom with fellow lovers of movies, anime, comic books and other popular culture. Apparently, I was wrong. If you are looking for a way to participate in some revelry post-Fasching, we’ve got you covered.
