Wizard World Nashville Comic Con (Event Report)


BioGamer Girl recently attended the 2017 Nashville Comic Con hosted by Wizard World.

The 2017 Nashville Comic Con took place from September 8-10th in downtown Nashville. The event had a slew of celebrity guests that included Stan Lee, Val Kilmer, Nichelle Nichols, Dean Cain, Summer Glau and many more. Attendees had a chance to meet their heroes and get autographs and/or photos.


The event was packed all three days with cosplayers showing off their fandom with a variety of clever costumes. The programming schedule was off the chain with tons of panels, workshops and live music. Diehard fans also had a ton of vendors to choose from that all carried a wide array of geeky apparel and merchandise. And let's not forget the tasty food and beverages provided throughout the event to keep attendees well fed while waiting in line or enjoying the various activities available to them.

Wizard World also had a very impressive gaming lineup in Nashville that included a variety of consoles to play at and gaming contests to enter. Razer had a booth in the middle of the gaming area where you could participate to win prizes while enjoying a fun & rocking entertainment experience at their booth. There was also a ton of cool items around the event that made for great photo ops that included the Batman car, the Mutt Cutts vehicle from Dumb & Dumber and many more.

In the end, Wizard World Nashville was a fantastic experience and had everything a geek could ask for from great cosplay to Stan Lee! To learn more, visit the official Wizard World website.
