This brand new event, taking place on 2nd August 2025 at the DoubleTree by Hilton, Cambridge Street, Glasgow will feature talks and workshops from talented independent creators, as well as free to enter art and cosplay competitions.

Featured artists include hesitantdoodle, who created the Sequential Scotland poster, a Glasgow-based illustrator and comic artist, whose work captures the action of sports, drama of romance novels and whimsy of magical girls, to produce effervescent and colourful comics.

They created the web series, Creating Comics UK, judged the LDComics Awards 2021 and were shortlisted for the Selkie Comic Awards 2024. hesitantdoodle loves creating and collecting little creatures and collaborating with other artists to bring to life new and wonderful stories.

Artist Table Applications – What are Sequential Scotland Looking For?

“Sequential art! Comics, zines, art books and some TTRPG books fall into this category,” say the organising team, the deadline for applications 24th March 2025. “We want to see your own original works that utilise the interplay between text and image to tell a narrative. This definition is flexible on purpose so that we can judge each application on a case-by-case basis, and hopefully show the true breadth of this artform.”

How much are tables? Tables cost £60 each and come with two exhibitor passes. Additional exhibitor passes can be purchased for £15 each at a maximum of one additional pass per table. Check out the terms and conditions here
