Two day for-profit con with a nice guest list of media stars (including Kevin Sorbo) at University of Phoenix Stadium ..
For-profit con with some interesting guests
Home Page: AdventureCon 2008 -- Glendale, AZ
Cost: Not listed
Where: University of Phoenix Stadium (Glendale, AZ -- it's where the Phoenix Cardinals play and is not on a university campus). No con hotel listed.
What: Con is for-profit and the site has some pretty pictures of celebrities, but is sparse on details. Even though it's just a few months away there's no track of programming, hours, registration or admission cost information. The site does make clear that you only get "free autographs" if you buy something.
Likely this is a con geared towards interested mundanes (ooh, I got to see Hercules!) and casual fans but not more serious con-going members of fandom who go to cons to hang out with other fans and attend workshops and panels. (I may be wrong, I'm basing this assessment on the sparse info page, the fact it's only two days long, and that it's at a stadium with no con hotel listed.)
2008 Guests: Dave Prowse, Vic Tablain, Kevin Sorbo, Daeg Faerch, Hannah Hall, Danielle Harris
