The always fascinating BroadwayCon will be happening in just a few short days and one of the things that always interests me about this theatrical convention is the exhibitor room. Sure I love the theatre and all the performances but the consumer side of me just loves to see what kinds of exhibitors will be in attendance. Take a look down below if you are considering attending this event. I do believe there are still some of the general tickets available so if you’re a fan of that which be Broadway, come on out and celebrate with your fellow theatre mavens at BroadwayCon. Also, they recently announced that the event would be moved from the New York Hilton Midtown to the New York Marriott Marquis and I documented that HERE in case you’d care to review the information.

The Press Release:
Fanatics has announced plans for the return of Fanatics Fest NYC – the immersive, interactive festival which captivated fans and collectors of all ages for the first time this past summer – which will take place from June 20 – 22, 2025 at the Javits Center in New York City. The multi-day event transforms New York City into the epicenter of fandom, collecting, and culture, and in 2025 will bring together even more of the preeminent athletes, leagues, teams and brands under one roof for an experience like no other.

In August, the inaugural Fanatics Fest NYC hosted more than 70,000 fans across three days and based on the strong turnout, positive fan sentiment and social buzz, the 2025 event will be bigger and better. With significantly more space added for next year’s event, fans can expect an expansive schedule of live, on-site programming, panels and discussions; larger superstores and autograph zones; a much wider array of exclusive collabs and products; more space for league and brand activations; and a larger trading card and collectibles exhibit.

Exhibitor Chats @ Curve New York, Summer 2024: Part 2

Back in August, “The Chronicles of Piercing Ken” was once again in attendance for the Curve New York expo. For those in the unaware, the Curve Expo is a trade show that focuses on intimates like lingerie but also showcases swimwear and assorted accessories. The show runs in tandem with the NY NOW show and while that trade show takes place on the main expo floor of the Javits Center, the Curve Show is up in the River Pavilion. Since the general public is not permitted at such an event, I like to bring our audience into the mix as best as possible and in addition to some social media posts and website feeds, I did some exhibitor interviews as well. While the videos are all resident on the Official Piercing Ken YouTube Channel, I’ve also collected them in posts like this to add to the website content. The journey continues with the “okko” brand and our one on one chat with the company founder Phoebe Kunitomi.
