Megacon Orlando Final Thoughts by: Katrina Tecxidor
MegaCon Orlando 2018 (May 24-27th) was one of the best events we have been to. Megacon’s creators, Fan Expo, found a way to fill the Orange County Convention Center without it feeling too crowded. Considering somewhere around 20,000 or more people attended this event that is a great accomplishment. Every care was taken to accommodate a large population of attendees to make their Megacon experience more pleasing. There was a variety of places to eat that I was pleased I could eat at. I am a vegan with food allergies and I still had many options.
The artists were a big part of the event. We have never met as much of a variety of artist (famous and indie) at any other event prior. Everyone was very energized and happy to be there. There was something for everyone in terms of the venders at the event. You could go there and have all you would need for your cosplay, fashion, or art needs. If you are a business owner this is the place to make connections. We met so many people looking to make their footing into the cosplay industry. It was fantastic to see so many types of people represented. Megacon took care to be inclusive to all cultures and styles of geek culture.
The only was the event could be better would be to have more panels from actual cosplayers. The event is mostly home to celebrity panels. The biggest complaint that attendees expressed was the cost of the celebrity’s signatures and photo sessions. We found the rates to be in line with all other events of that size for the most part.
I have been attending Megacon for over 5 years. This by far was my favorite year. The level of cosplay that we saw at the event was amazing. I would like to thank everyone who saw us at The Pow Wow show booth and everyone who allowed us to interview them. Make sure you contact us at the next con and happy cosplaying!
