The wildly popular Kid Con is back too! |
It’s back! Salt Lake Comic Con Fan X. One of the most popular events ever and popular around the whole country, as people join in the fun of dressing up and “becoming” their favorite characters from cartoons, t.v. Shows and movies!
For Those of you who attended Salt Lake City Comic Con in September 2014 and came away wanting even more, I’ve got great news! Salt Lake Comic Con Fan Xperience is back, with a smaller, high-quality event with event founders Dan Farr and Bryan Brandenburg announcing a significantly lower amount of tickets being allotted. There will be only 50,000 tickets per day, as compared to the maximum crowd attendance of 120,000 people one day at Comic Con 2014, overwhelming the arena on opening day in September. With this and other improvements, this year’s Salt Lake City FanXperience shouldn’t be one to be forgotten for those privileged to attend!
As a volunteer and attendee at the SLC Fan X 2014 can attest, there is something for everyone and it brings out the inner nerd in all of us! It brings the whole family together, as the kids can dress up, attend KidCon and see other kids dressed up in their favorite characters. Also, with one-of-a-kind vendors congregating at the event, you’ll be sure to find gifts and collectibles you could never find on Amazon.
The Comic Con Organization also gives back to the community. They have worked to donate and work with 18 charities and public organizations including Boy Scouts of America, Firemen & Friends For Kids, Huntsman Cancer Institute, & Intermountain Primary Children’s Hospital. Also, in the near future, they will be partnering with the American Red Cross at the event itself.
If you aren’t impressed with huge, pressing crowds, this is the event for you. With the huge crowds of September still in many people’s minds, it might be appropriate to understand what actually happened. Basically, the founders didn’t realize the huge popularity of the event. Complimentary tickets were given out as a gesture to schools, law enforcement personnel, fire department personnel, military and individuals in need. This is a standard procedure for most major events and the average redemption rate for an event is under 25%. But for this hugely popular event, the redemption rate for these tickets alone was at 97%! This put the already highly attended event over the top! Now the organizers of Comic Con are excited to put their experiences to great use and Fan Xperience 2015 will be amazing!
This year’s star roster includes Carrie Fisher, Morena Baccarin, Felicia Day, Tom Felton, Brandon Routh, Christopher Lloyd, Alaina Huffman and many more!

I really love that Kids can dress up. My boys have been dying to go to comic con since it started here in SLC. I find it amazing that they gave out complimentary tickets to police officers,firefighters and teachers from schools as well.

I really wanted to go to SLComic-Con last September but forgot to buy tickets. Then I was glad that I didn’t after hearing how people never got to meet anyone or go and see the panels because of it being so crowded. I’m glad that you clarified that they are going to have fewer tickets available so it won’t be so overcrowded. I would LOVE to win these tickets for me and my hubby (and my girls would have fun too!).
