TRIPOM TRADING [FREE ACCESS]
We’ve set up tables so you can come and hang out with friends, perhaps play a few games of TriPom, or simply trade with visitors at the pop-up. It’s a space to hang out while you are engaged between quests.
FREE COMPANY MEET-UP [FREE ACCESS]
We’ve built an incredible community on Final Fantasy XIV, with a bustling FC on Moogle. Whether you’re already a member or considering joining, come and meet our players! Check out our Discord for full details.
BUSTER SWORD PHOTO-OP [FREE ACCESS]
Come and get your photograph with the KupoCon Buster Sword. No purchase required. Be gentle, we want to avoid wear, tear and rust.
MEET THE TEAM + MORE [FREE ACCESS]
Come and meet the people behind KupoCon and ask questions about the event. Consider it like an open forum. We may have a few surprises for you.
QUEST LOG [PAID]
While this may not be a full-scale event, we want it to have that KupoCon vibe. So we’ve produced Quest Logs that allow you to explore London, earn gil, and get merch. These can be purchased in advance or over the weekend.
FRIDAY SOCIAL MIXER 18+ [PAID]
We’ve saved the best for last. It’s time to get together and mingle with the community. Tickets are required for this portion of the event. Tickets are available to patrons on June 4, and public sales begin on June 5 at 6PM BST.
Can I visit any time, any day, multiple times a day?
Absolutely. You’re free to come and go as you please. You do not need a ticket to access the pop-up but please keep in mind we have a limited capacity.
What is TriPom and how do I trade?
TriPom is a KupoCon trading card series based on Final Fantasy 8. You heard right! Bring along your spare TriPom and haggle with our TriPom trader for the chance to turn your unused duplicates into gil to use at our merch desk. You can also trade for different cards.
Got tips for my quest log?
Yes! We understand you wish to spend time with friends, so we advise going questing together. It’s a great way to hang out while seeing some beautiful sights you may have never ventured to before. We also recommend getting your Quest Logs as early as possible so you don’t have to rush about. You have until Sunday to cash in your quests and hunts for gil, so take your time and enjoy! A camera/phone will help!
Is there a dresscode at any point, especially for the mixer?
There is no specific dresscode or theme during the day. As always, you are welcome to cosplay. For the evening social event, there is no theme, but we encourage everyone to make an effort in treating this as a cocktail party you’ve been invited to.
I’m totally new! What’s TriPom, what are these quest logs, what even is KupoCon?
Check out our about page – https://kupocon.com/about/ – and likewise visit our dedicated TriPom page and Glossary page for anything you’re unfamiliar with!
I need assistance, where can I ask a question?
