Scenes from Travel & Adventure Show 2025 @ Javits Center (Part Two)

Hey friends, I’m back again this morning to continue to share the findings from the recently held “Travel & Adventure Show” that took over a section of the Javits Center. As I mentioned, the New York Boat Show and the AKC Meet The Breeds were all happening at the same time and I had press badges for all three of them. It’s a lot more work but honestly can be easy to do if you moderate your time effectively. So this time around I snapped more of the pavilions than the patrons. I didn’t want random strangers seeing their photos presented and sending me privacy violations notices.

Believe it or not, the BroadwayCon for 2025 is pretty much around the corner and I’m excited to share that “The Chronicles of Piercing Ken” is going to be among the members of the accredited press for this years convention. To celebrate I’m once again sharing the fun graphic that I use for such approvals.

The Javits Center was a busy place recently with the AKC “Meet The Breeds” taking over the downstairs section while the New York Boat Show was up top on the right side of the expo floor and last but certainly not least – The Travel & Adventure Show had returned for their fourth annual happening. My last time taking a look around this one was in 2023 but that was as a guest of an exhibitor I knew. This time around I was hoping to do the exploring with a more professional vibe.

Generally speaking, I set up my own accesses to these events well in advance but this time around I was so consumed with life in general and being media for the other two happenings that I wasn’t sure I would even be able to set aside some exploring time, but when I had a breather I walked over to the press office to express interest in a brief walkthrough.

The BroadwayCon for 2024 is approaching at a rapid pace and I’m taking a moment to let you all know that “The Chronicles of Piercing Ken” has once again been approved as a member of the attending press for this years convention.

Historically speaking, I’ve been attending the BroadwayCon since 2018 if memory serves me correctly and back then it was held at the Javits Center and was running in tandem with both the New York Boat Show and the New York Times Travel Show. I learned about them onsite quite accidentally and have tried to do my best to broadcast some of the awesome stuff I get to see. At the time of this announcement I am totally unaware how I will approach this years happening but I know I will likely do some exhibitor interviews and a whole lot of Instagram posts if I see a wide gamut of cosplayers. That’s all I have to say on this one but stay tuned to the site and our social media via our Official Linktree. See you again soon.

Scenes from Travel & Adventure Show 2023 @ Javits Center

Greetings Friends and welcome back to another adventure. So at the time that you are reading this, if you opened up our website with the morning coffee that is, there are three events happening over at the Javits Center today. The New York Boat Show, The Travel & Adventure Show and AKC Meet The Breeds are all taking place concurrently and bringing their respective audiences into the mix.

While “The Chronicles” had been set up as attending media for the Boat Show and the “Meet The Breeds”, we were unable to get the credentials to explore the travel event and that was fine since those two shows were keeping me busy enough. However, a marketing associate I’ve known for years was working with the Japanese pavilion and had a guest pass for me to briefly explore and so I’m sharing a very limited batch of visuals. For me, content is king here on “The Chronicles” of Piercing Ken so I don’t mind putting stuff up. The funny thing was that my associate was too busy to even be in these few shots.
