The stars of the actual play phenomenon will appear at the Excel Centre in London next year, coinciding with their global tour.
ReedPop has confirmed that the founding cast of Critical Role will attend MCM Comic Con London in October 2026. The announcement brings some of the biggest names in the tabletop roleplaying game industry to the Excel Centre, with appearances scheduled for the Friday and Saturday of the event.
While Critical Role began as a home game among friends in 2012, it has since evolved into a multimedia juggernaut, beginning to stream in 2015. Led by Dungeon Master Matthew Mercer, the show features a cast of veteran voice actors playing Dungeons & Dragons. It is currently in its fourth campaign and has expanded into animated series on Amazon Prime, comic books, and official campaign settings published in collaboration with Wizards of the Coast.
The attending cast members include Matthew Mercer (Attack on Titan, Overwatch), Laura Bailey (The Last of Us Part II, Vex’ahlia), Ashley Johnson (The Last of Us, Blindspot), Liam O’Brien (Naruto, Gaara), Travis Willingham (Fullmetal Alchemist, Roy Mustang), Taliesin Jaffe (The Flash games), Marisha Ray (Persona 4 Arena Ultimax), and Sam Riegel (Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles).
Fans attending the convention will have access to photo opportunities and autograph sessions with the cast on Friday and Saturday. This appearance aligns with the group’s “Echoes of Exandria” global tour, which Geek Native reported earlier this year includes a live show at London’s O2 Arena in late October 2026.
Before the October event, MCM Comic Con will return to London in May 2026. That show has already announced fantasy author Brandon Sanderson and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles co-creator Kevin Eastman as initial guests. Tickets for the October convention, including the chance to see the Critical Role cast, will go on sale following the May event.
If you plan to travel to London for the convention, you can book via Trainline.
