Tomorrow I’ll be flying out to Florida and two days later I’ll be at MegaCon Orlando! This is one of my favorite cons because I just love the wide variety of geekdoms that are represented and the amount of wonderful guests and interesting panels. You’ll see everything from gaming to science fiction to anime/animation to cosplay to horror and more.
The complete MegaCon schedule recently came out so, of course, I started planning! There’s always SO MUCH to see and do and you don’t want to waste a minute of it! Here’s a breakdown of everything I’m interested in doing. In several time slots, I include backups just in case. In some cases, there are other panels I’m interested in but a BOLDED choice takes precedence so I don’t even include it. I’m also including several cosplay photo opportunities that I will most likely send my dad to capture photos for a comprehensive Cosplay blog post. If you’ll be at MegaCon and plan on being at any of these events, feel free to say hi!
*The events in bold are the ones we’re most looking forward to and don’t want to miss!
