Grab Your 2012 C2E2 Tickets While You Can

Ahh, December is right around the corner – and for most comic con enthusiasts that means that a new year is right around the corner which brings plenty of new comic cons to attend. December also  means a ton of presents…

The first comic con of 2012 is C2E2 – The comics and entertainment expo, which takes place in Chicago – my hometown. This is one of the newest conventions to hit the scene and has already taken off in its short existence. The 2012 C2E2 Con takes place on April 13-15, 2012, at McCormick place – which is located right in the heart of the city – unlike most conventions.

Here is some info about C2E2:

TheChicagoComic & Entertainment Expo – also known as C2E2 – is a convention spanning the latest and greatest from the worlds of comics, movies, television, toys, anime, manga and video games. From a show floor packed with hundreds of exhibitors, to panels and autograph sessions giving fans a chance to interact with their favorite creators, to screening rooms featuring sneak peeks at films and television shows months before they hit either the big or small screen, C2E2 brings the best of popular culture to downtown Chicago!

“We have had three objectives in mind in determining our 2012 dates for C2E2,” notes Lance Fensterman, Group Vice President for ReedPOP and Show Manager for C2E2. “We wanted to keep C2E2 in the first quarter of the year, preferably March or April, we wanted to work together with WonderCon to set a schedule that makes sense for fans and exhibitors, and we wanted to keep C2E2 atMcCormick Place. We have managed to satisfy all three of these requirements and we can now set our sights on delivering a fabulous show that will have all the earmarks of a great ReePOP event.”

Customers interested in signing up for Chicago Comic and Entertainment Expo should contact Larry Settembrini at lsettembrini@reedexpo.com.  Other information about the show, as well as news about ReedPOP, which also organizes New York Comic Con (NYCC) is available at Lance Fensterman’s blog, www.mediumatlarge.net. 

If you are not from Chicago, I would strongly suggest coming here for a weekend. Spend some time at C2E2 and then enjoy the beautiful city. There are hundreds of things to do, places to visit and delicious food to enjoy!

I will def be there tweeting the event @ComicConBlog and will take a ton of pictures for my readers to enjoy!
