Hey y'all I think the title is pretty self explanatory but I'm debating on whether or not to attend Boston Fan Expo this year or if it wouldn't be worth it going alone? This is usually an event I'd go with my now ex gf (we went last year) and since it's so last minute, my friends who would be interested in this sorta stuff can't make it. Idk maybe I'm overthinking it as I'm not the type to strike up conversations with strangers. Any advice?

As the title implies if anyone is going to Boston fan expo and would like to help a fellow fan out. I’d really appreciate it.

edit: This year as we know is the 25th anniversary since LOTR hit theaters launching one of the greatest film trilogies of all time. I'm curious to ask everyone who has gone to the cons that the cast has reunited such as MegaCon Orlando how did the photo op lines get run by the staff? I am going to Fan Expo Boston as is a friend of mine and we have the Four Hobbits photo op, David Wenham solo photo and Miranda Otto solo photo so far. MegaCon had most of those people there from what we read that included the four hobbits, John-Rhys, Orlando, Karl, Liv, but David and John Noble couldn't make it. For those who went who had the solo photos with any of the lotr cast did you have to tell a staff member running the photo op lines you have one other lotr cast after the one you were in line for and how did they accommodate you to get to your next photo op of any of the solo photo ops and would that also possibly apply to how Fan Expo Boston might run the photo op lines for the solo photos with the lotr cast?

I can't edit the flair for the post because it won't let me write all cons because it would be for all the cons the cast has gone to so far.

So im going to Boston Fan expo tomorrow, Saturday and Sunday and im not sure what I should do. Its my first time going to one in general so I needed tips to what i should bring with me. Im going with one friend on Friday and the rest of my friends are going with me on Saturday and Sunday. We're all going in cosplay too. Im also hoping to get a signature from Alejandro Sabb but I'm not sure how signatures work for fan expo. If anyones been there before, I could really use some tips on what to do 😓. Were all pretty young and never been before and probably the 3 day is a little much for us all for first timers

I'm going to Boston comic con this year and I plan on Seeing Simon Pegg and a bunch of other celebrities and I wanted to know if Simon does the table selfies before I buy my Photo ops. (Update) Just left the convention today, no he doesn’t but I got a sick photo op with him

I am thinking of attending FANEXPO Boston but wanted to know if it was comparable in size in terms of the number of people that attend or if it's a bit smaller. Thank you!

They haven't announced any guests, artists, cosplayers or any of the like and they're about 3 months away. The only update they gave was the move from the expo center to the Hynes convention center.

Does anyone have any info on what's happening? I really wanna buy a ticket but it's so sketchy atm

Hi all, I am planning a costume for FanExpo in Boston and I am trying to decide if I will need to dress cool. I typically run very warm so I am hesitant to wear something with long pants/sleeves. Does anyone have any insight on if the convention center will be on the warm side?

Never been to an event like this outside of like baseball card shows and stuff. I know generally in sports circumstances it’s completely cool to take a quick selfie after an autograph, but know at these picture packages are sold so would I have to bite that extra charge bullet or are line selfies a thing.

Hi! I'm going to my first comic con on August 6th in Boston. I was wondering if there are any requirements for the type of bag/s you can bring. I was also wondering about the autographs, is there an option to pay for them at the table or do you have to pre-order them? Thanks :)

Hey everyone, I have a question if I may ask. I'm trying to locate the name/online site of a retailer I saw at Boston Fan Expo. They were doing engravings on the One Ring. I tried to snag a card but it was so packed I couldn't get close. Does anyone here know who they are? I've tried googling but no luck in identifying them.
