Fan Expo New Orleans

Fan Expo New Orleans will be in the Big Easy for three days, when lovers of time travel, zombies, and more descend on the Convention Center to revel in fandom galore. The convention honors the creation and celebration of all corners of pop culture, from fantasy to sci-fi, gaming to graphic novels, books, movies, TV, and beyond; it's a place where characters from the screen, the page, and the fans' own imaginations come to life for an action-packed weekend. This year's Expo features a rare Lord of the Rings cast reunion with Elijah Wood, Sean Astin, Billy Boyd, and Dominic Monaghan; Linda Hamilton from Terminator, voice actors from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, and many others. Fan Expo New Orleans also features an Artists Alley, movie screenings, gaming, live entertainment, costume contests, and more. Plus, kids ten and younger snag free admission with a paid adult, so it's a great chance to get the whole family into your favorite fandom fun. 3 pm–8 pm Friday; 10 am–7 pm Saturday; 10 am–5 pm Sunday.
