Critical Role Headlines MomoCon 2026, the Southeast US’s Biggest Gaming and Anime Festival

MomoCon, the largest celebration of anime and gaming in the Southeast United States, returns to the Georgia World Congress Center in Atlanta from Thursday, May 21, to Sunday, May 24, 2026, featuring the cast of the American web series Critical Role.
 
Known for its famous web series, Critical Role began as a group of voice actors coming together to play the fantasy tabletop role-playing game Dungeons & Dragons. In the years since, it has evolved into a multi-platform entertainment behemoth that includes comic series, art books, novels, campaign setting books, animated series, miniatures, and other collectibles.
 
Matthew Mercer (Baldur’s Gate III, Attack on Titan, Cyberpunk: Edgerunners) and Ashley Johnson (The Last of Us, Blindspot, The Legend of Vox Machina) will headline MomoCon 2026 along with Laura Bailey (Spider-Man 2, The Last of Us: Part II, Marvel Rivals), Taliesin Jaffe (Avowed, Street Fighter IV, Hellsing), and the rest of the Critical Role cast. All eight actors will be on hand to meet with fans and sign autographs on both Saturday and Sunday.

Joined by Marisha Ray (The Legend of Vox Machina, Batgirl: Spoiled, Fallout 76: Once in a Blue Moon), Liam O’Brien (Marvel Rivals, Young Jedi Adventures, Star Wars: The Bad Batch), Sam Riegel (Teenage Ninja Mutant Turtles, DuckTales, Bugsnax), and Travis Willigham (Mortal Kombat 1: Definitive Edition, Avengers Assemble, X-Men ‘97), the group will also host an exclusive panel on Saturday, March 23.
 
Attendees can purchase a Multi-Day 4-Day pass for $92.91, Thursday or Sunday Only passes for $63.99, a Friday Only pass for $69.77, and a Saturday Only pass for $81.34 via MomoCon's official website.
