I know this may not be as relevant here on the blog since most everyone I know on here lives in a different country, but I thought I would go ahead and announce it anyway. Next August the North Carolina Transformers group will be hosting the first Transformers Convention in Charlotte, NC. We have been working on this for a while now and it is looking to be like a great convention so far. If you are interested in attending (and are close enough) here are a few of the events we have planned:
Voice Actors and Voice Actor Panels
Cosplay and Costume Contests
4,000+ sq ft Dealer Room
Transformers Toy Panels
Trivia Contests
Kids Games
Friday night DJ Party
Plus much more, but I can't divulge too many details just yet. Anyway, Hotel Reservations are already up and pre-registration should be available before the end of the year. Check out: www.charticon.com for full details.
Part of the reason we are doing this is because Savcon 2013 was unfortunately cancelled and we all really enjoyed the last convention. So in an effort to continue the Southern United States TF conventions we decided we would hold Charticon instead.
Is it bad that it is still eleven months away and I'm already really excited for it?
Love the image above.
ReplyDeletePlease tell me that your wife will be the first one through the door, grabbing all Sharkticons!
Haha, absolutely! She'll be in the dealer room before it opens grabbing them all :)
DeleteI'm up in Wisconsin Ark, but its not entirely impossible that I could make it down next year, depending on my schedule! It'd be awesome!
ReplyDeleteThat would be really cool if you could make it; do you ever attend DairyCon since you are so close?
DeleteI have yet to get there, every time there has been a scheduling conflict. I'm definitely planning on 2013's though!
DeleteI'm thinking my annual trip to the local HeroesCon will be skipped in favor of Charticon next summer. You're not the only one that is super excited about this 11 months out!
ReplyDeleteHaha, I don't see why you can't do both since they're both in your backyard. We will be going to HeroesCon anyway to promote :D
