Liverpool’s geek community is gearing up for an exciting start to the year as Geek Bazaar makes its highly anticipated return this Saturday 21st March 2026. Hosted in the heart of the city at The Liner Hotel, the event promises a full day of fandom, creativity and community spirit.
Running from 10am to 4pm, Geek Bazaar is set to transform Liverpool into a hub of all things geek culture. With over 40 traders and artists in attendance, visitors can expect a diverse marketplace featuring everything from collectibles and handmade crafts to unique artwork and books from local creators.
The event isn’t just about shopping — there’s plenty of interactive entertainment lined up throughout the day. Gaming fans can test their skills in tournaments featuring classics like Mario Kart and Street Fighter II, while cosplay enthusiasts can take part in the Empire Sector Cosplay Competition. With categories for under 13s and over 13s — and a £50 cash prize up for grabs in the older group — the competition is expected to be one of the highlights of the day.
In addition to the competitions, attendees can enjoy cosplay panel talks, meet fellow fans and immerse themselves in a vibrant atmosphere filled with characters from across countless fandoms. Whether you’re into gaming, anime, comics, or film, there’s something for everyone. Entry is priced at just £5 on the door, with children under 10 admitted free when accompanied by an adult.
Organiser Phillip Larner, of Empire Sector, said: “These events are such fun and there’s so much to see and do throughout the day. We’re excited for our first event of 2026 and we have another Geek Bazaar in May, an Anime Bazaar, a film festival and lots more lined up throughout the year. It’s super affordable and accessible too — something that’s really important to us.”
Geek Bazaar has built a reputation as one of Liverpool’s most welcoming and energetic geek events, and 2026 looks set to continue that tradition with even bigger energy and community spirit. Whether you’re a seasoned cosplayer, a collector hunting for your next treasure, or simply looking for a fun and unique way to spend your Saturday, Geek Bazaar is the place to be.
