We are delighted to officially announce the rescheduled premiere of Project Origin: For King and Con, which will now take place at MegaPom in London on Sunday, February 15th 2026. This long-anticipated documentary, which delves into the heart and history of KupoCon, will screen in the evening following Community and Franchise Day. After much planning, reflection, and reworking, we’re thrilled to bring this emotional and revealing project to our community.

The screening will be held within the Novotel London West, with doors opening at 6:00pm for patrons and 6:30pm for general ticket holders. The film will begin promptly at 7:00pm. A full bar service will be available before and after the screening, and please note that this is a strictly 18+ event. This experience is designed to be an intimate celebration of the journey we’ve all taken together. Raw, honest, and entirely unique.

In addition to the film, we will be offering a selection of exclusive merchandise, specially created for the screening. These items will be available only at this event, and once they’re gone, they’re gone. Whether you’re a longtime supporter or a curious newcomer, these commemoratives are a one-time opportunity to own a piece of KupoCon history.

Tickets are just £10 during the early chocobo sale and £15 aftwerwards and are available only to MegaPom ticket holders. Attendance at MegaPom is a requirement for entry to the screening.

Before and after, you may use them as much as you like and we encourage you to capture the moment.

Of course, we understand that expressing emotions is part of the experience, just try to be conscious of those around you.

The documentary addresses sensitive topics, including strong language, self-harm, suicide, drug use, abuse, and depression.
