June 3 - 5, 2016

 

Walter E. Washington Convention Center

Washington, DC

 

Same weekend as Wizard World Philadelphia, so I'm curious to see how the guest list shakes out.

 

Guests announced so far:

Morena Baccarin

Burt Ward

Adam West

Also, the week after a 4 day Megacon.

I'd like to go because it's my local show and will likely be way less busy than Philly, but I've not been to Philly yet and I feel like they are more likely to get the Whedonverse/Whoniverse people I haven't met yet.

 

Next year is gonna be a weird year for shows: Toronto Fan Expo, Dragon Con, Salt Lake City, and Baltimore are all the same weekend.

Been a few months since the last bump.

 

They are adding more guests, but mostly media guests. Just a few confirmed comic artists and writers. I had a good time at the show last year, but not sure that it'll be better than WW Philly (same weekend).

If they do the panel set up like last year, I think it's a better show to go to if you want to go to the big panels it's a lot easier than Wizard World since the big panels are all in one room that holds thousands. Last year, there were always seats left in every panel.
