Location

Venue

Due to its large glass front, as well as the huge space, the Cinedom in Cologne is perfectly suited to serve as the venue for JCON EUROPE 2023.

Furthermore, it also offers enough possibilities to get there, e.g. by car or public transport. 
A parking garage below the building offers the perfect opportunity to arrive by car independently or in a carpool.
