What is the history behind Galactic Con?
Growing up we went to many conventions and larger entertainment shows.
Once we started a family we realized we had been “priced out” of most
fan shows and could no longer afford to attend them. We decided to try
running our first show in Delaware in 2015 with the hope of bringing
an exciting, family friendly event to Middletown, and breaking even in
the process. It was a really fun, great time, and the feedback
convinced us to keep at it!
Is it family friendly?
Absolutely. Bring the whole family!
I’ve never been to a Comic Con before, what can I expect?
You are the customer we are looking for! We are a great first time
con. We aren’t too big so you won’t ever feel the overwhelming effect
of a large show. You can expect to see original art, lots of comic
book vendors who can help you find a book to read, and some great
costuming. Part of the experience is going booth to booth and talking
with the artists and vendors one to one. You will get the most out of
your day just connecting with other other fans in the pop culture
community. Being a smaller show, you can get a more intimate
experience and can commission art very easily.
How long will it take to walk your convention?
This is a question we hear often, but it is hard to provide an answer
that applies to everyone. Some people can breeze through in an hour.
Others hang out all day. Our events average 30 vendors and 30 artists,
which is considered a smaller show. So while you might be able to see
all the exhibitors quickly, other events and cosplayers may encourage
fans to hang around longer.
Why don’t you have celebrities?
In order to keep our costs low we have chosen to not pursue celebrity
headliners.
There are already a lot of amazing conventions where you can see top
talent and we are not attempting to compete with the “big” shows.
How is Galactic Con different than other conventions?
#1 – we’re affordable. We bring cosplay, artists and great comic
vendors at a price that allows you to bring your whole family.
What is Galactic Con?
A family run comic con. My husband and I run the show only with help
from family and friends. We keep our costs low and pass on our savings
to the vendors, artists and fans.
How can I become a sponsor?
We are now accepting Sponsors for our future shows.
