Title: Anyone Going to MegaCon Orlando?
Post by: roughwriter on December 14, 2021, 07:23:09 AM

I'm unfamiliar with the many different shows, and which are worth going to. I just saw a notice that Orlando will host a 3 day event at their convention center May 19-22, 2022 called MegaCon Orlando. Does anyone know if this show has any Wackys? Are any forum members going?

I havent actually been to it, but perusing their web site, it looks like the focus is comics, movies, sci fi and anime. Sounds like Wizard World, which recently rebranded itself as Fan Expo. This may actually be  one of their shows. As such, wackys will probably be a tiny part if any. I have been to probably 15 Wizard cons in Chicago, and never seen a wacky dealer….

In my humble opinion...  most deals are made between the vendors/dealers before the doors even open, leaving swill to the masses

You don't know how true that is.
