Nampa, Idaho, July 27, 2012 – Fandemonium Entertainment Group, LLC announces its ninth annual entertainment expo. Fandemonium is a three day event celebrating all things media culture with events, panels, workshops, contests, tabletop gaming, video gaming, demonstrations and more.
“Fandemonium is about education through entertainment,” says Jamie Parker, Fandemonium’s chairperson. “We want to give fans a place to express their love of any type of entertainment media culture, but at the same time provide them opportunities to learn new skills and techniques or share what they already know through community involvement.”
Guests at Fandemonium 2012 include Jacob Bear (Comic Artist - DC Comics; “Hawk & Dove,” Bluewater Comics; “Logan's Run”), Michaelbrent Collings (Horror Author – “Billy: Messenger of Powers”, “RUN”, “The Loon” and “Rising Fears”), the Brothers Thir13en (Horror aficionados and horror house actors), Tonya “Tangl” Adolfson (Fantasy Author – “The Souls of the Saintland Series”), and Holland Peterson (Science Fiction/Fantasy Author – “Eville,” “Eville's Most Wanted”). Video game and tabletop gaming tournaments will run throughout the expo. Exhibitors and artists will be in attendance to share their wares or handmade crafts, and an art show room will be available to showcase 2D and 3D pieces created by fans, and by Treasure Valley artistic community at large. “This event is ‘for the fans, by the fans’,” says Parker. “Anything you see, hear or participate in at this convention exists because someone in the community was willing to come in and make it happen. We expect to see over 800 attendees this year, and we are incredibly grateful to our staff and event-runners for their efforts.”
The Entertainment Expo takes place in Nampa, ID at the Nampa Civic Center on August 3rd-5th, 2012, from 10am to midnight each day. Admission is $40 per person for three days, with discounts available for daily passes, youth, military and seniors.
