GeekDad + Awesome Con DC = Free Tickets

Events Geek Culture

That’s right! GeekDad and Awesome-Con are officially partnering up this year to help you celebrate Father’s Day in style!

Where else would you rather be this Father’s Day than at Awesome Con in Washington, DC? One of the region’s best con experiences is coming back on June 16-18, 2017, at the Washington Convention Center. Tickets are on sale here.

The guest list at this year’s show is impressive as always, including David Tennant, John Barrowman, Chris Hadfield, Edgar Wright, Stan Lee, Catherine Tate, Felicia Day, Wil Wheaton, and many, many more.

The Awesome Con Jr pavilion (sponsored by Nickelodeon) will be your family-friendly HQ with programming, activities, and photo opportunities all weekend long. Life-sized Toothless from How to Train Your Dragon. Need I say more?

Then, on Sunday (Father’s Day), be sure to stop by Room 149 at 1:30 for the GeekDad panel!

GeekDad Celebrates Father’s Day: Raising Geek Generation 2.0

Join some of the writers from GeekDad.com to discuss raising the next generation of geeks. They’ll talk about introducing various fandoms to kids, sharing old and new geeky passions with kids, and choosing which things are appropriate for different ages. Some of them may even be joined by their kids who will discuss what it’s like growing up geek. Come for the unabashed geekery, stay for some great surprises! Join in the conversation and bring your own experiences and questions! June 18 at 1:30pm – Room 149.

We’ll have lots of geekery (and plenty of prizes) to go around. So make sure it’s on your calendar.
