Dragon Con 2016 ran from September 2, 2016 to September 5, 2016 in Atlanta. This edition reached about 77,000 attendees and later became widely discussed for a 9/11 cosplay controversy, showing how quickly Dragon Con was scaling from a regional fan gathering into a major downtown pop-culture convention.

The 2016 show reflected a convention that had grown far beyond its hotel-con roots into a sprawling city-center event, with cosplay, media tracks, gaming, and fan programming spread across multiple downtown buildings.
