Regular listeners of our podcasts know that I attend Dragon Con in Atlanta, Georgia over Labor Day weekend every year. This year the convention runs from August 30th through September 2nd. Dragon Con is one of the largest fan run conventions in the world with over 50,000 attendees and normally close to 400 celebrity guests.
There will be several Lost Girl related events happening at the convention this year so I wanted to put all of them together in a list for those Lost Girl fans who are planning on attending.
Please keep in mind that Dragon Con events and the guest list of which celebrities are coming to the con are very subject to change. It’s the nature of the this convention. Therefore, the details listed below are very subject to change between now and the start of the convention on August 30th.
Most of the Lost Girl activities will take place as part of the Urban Fantasy track. I highly recommend following their Facebook page and their track page on the Dragon Con website. The Urban Fantasy track is just one of the fan programming tracks at the convention. There are more than 35 different programming tracks at the convention so there are LOTS of great things always going on at the convention. You can see a listing of all the fan programming tracks here.
The details below were last reviewed for accuracy on July 26th.
