Los Angeles Comic Con is returning on October 4 to October 6 with more gaming fandom and other elements of pop culture like comics, sci-fi and anime.
The event has become L.A.’s largest pop culture event, and today the expo released its entire lineup of panels, entertainment, and activations. It began expanding last year after the demise of E3, the big North American game trade show which shut down.
The show aims to bring fans their most requested celebrity guests for panels and photograph/autograph opportunities, while welcoming new key partnerships with brands such as IGN to elevate the entire experience.
“Every year, it’s our goal to give attendees the most diverse, eclectic, and inspiring show, that lets them rediscover why they’re fans in the first place,” said Chris DeMoulin, CEO/GM of Los Angeles Comic Con parent company CEI, in a statement. “This year, we’re really touching on the nostalgia strings, bringing together some of our most requested guests and panels from the epic classic films we all know and love, while also highlighting the works of new creatives.”
