In less than two weeks nerds will converge upon the greater Phoenix area for the premier fan event in the Southwest – Phoenix Fan Fusion (formerly known as Phoenix Comic Fest and Phoenix Comic Con)!

This year, Phoenix Fan Fusion has an INCREDIBLE guest lineup including pop culture heavy hitters like: Jeff Goldblum, Elijah Wood, Paul Reubans, Adam Savage, Nichelle Nichols, Walter Koenig, George Takei, Garret Wang, John Barrowman, Catherine Tate, AND MORE!

I personally am MEGA THRILLED for the Star Wars guests this year. The ever charming Lando himself, Billy Dee Williams, is sure to delight fans, as well as Ray Park (Darth Maul), Author Michael Stackpole, Bryan Young from the Full of Sith Podcast, and one I’m particular excited for — BB-8 & porg puppeteer Brian Herring!!

PHXFF boasts 31 media guests, 72 comic guests, 18 authors, and 6 cosplayers that entail 22 fandoms. Phoenix Fan Fusion really does have something for everyone! On their website they’ve made it easy to sort the programming by fandoms so you’re able to get the most out of the con.

If you’re attending, be sure to download the app, create a plan of attack, and prepare accordingly! If you’re not able to make it, Nerd of Paradise has got you covered! Watch for coverage across social media as well as future podcast episodes with whoever will talk to us!

I am so ready for 4 days of nerdy bliss after the year I’ve been having!

Just remember — Stay safe, stay hydrated, AND STAY NERDY!
