“We are so excited to be able to branch out and bring something bigger and bolder to Vegas and Hawaii.” Said Amazing Comic Conventions founder Jimmy Jay. “After being Vegas’s leading show for the past 6 years and Hawaii’s ONLY show the past 4 years we felt it was time to bring more of the Architects of Pop culture that people love into these spaces. We were the first to bring COMIC CON’s to Hawaii and began a new trend of bringing big name talent like Stan Lee, William Shatner, Alan Tudyk and Star Trek The Next Generation cast members to the Aloha state. We can’t wait to continue that this year!! “

“Charlie, Evangeline, Rob, Brianna, Sam and Tara are currently some of the most prolific names in Pop Culture and it’s amazing for people to be able to interact with them and see them in an intimate but family-friendly environment.”

Amazing Comic Con Las Vegas and Aloha will feature Family Days on Sundays (July 1st and August 26th respectively) that focus on family fun. Tony Fleecs (My Little Pony) will be offering complimentary sketches for 1 hour and other select guests in the artist alley will provide Free Super Hero Sketches to Kids 10 and Under throughout the day. There will also be coloring contests, video game demos/tournaments and a special Children’s Cosplay Costume Cavalcade where all children are invited to dress up as their favorite pop culture characters.

Tickets for both shows can be purchased here, and start at $30.
