Geeks Rejoice! Fan Expo Dallas Is Back This Weekend

Blog· Entertainment· Events

Nerd culture is bigger than ever, with the international success of franchises like The Avengers and Dr. Who, as well as thousands of lesser-know fictional universes. For Dallas-area fans of comics, sci-fi, horror, gaming and anime, the biggest event of the year is Fan Expo Dallas, presented by Dallas Comic Con. This weekend, Fan Expo returns to the Kay Bailey Hutchison Convention Center for three days of celebrities, cosplay and merchandise.

Stan Lee, creator of innumerable Marvel superheroes

Headlining this year’s Fan Expo Dallas is Stan Lee, the man who created such Marvel characters as Spider-Man, Iron Man and the Incredible Hulk, as well as superhero teams like the X-Men and the Fantastic Four. Also headlining are Gillian Anderson of X-Files, Nathan Fillion and Alan Tudyk of Firefly, Jeri Ryan of Star Trek: Voyager, Matt Smith and Karen Gillan of Dr. Who, and many, many others.

In addition to the big name guests, Fan Expo Dallas has writers, artists, gamers and cosplayers. There will also be over 600 vendors and 75,000 fellow fans to meet and geek out with. Attendees are encouraged, but not required, to dress up. And no matter how you dress, there will be plenty of photo ops with celebrities and cosplayers alike. Like any good comic con, Fan Expo Dallas is a place to see and be seen. Whether you’re a hardcore comic book geek or just a casual fan, there’s a lot to do at the Convention Center this weekend.

Fan Expo Dallas runs from May 29 to May 31, 2015. Tickets are $119 for a Premium Pass and $89 for a Weekend Pass. Day passes are also available for each of the three days: $25 for 4pm to 9pm Friday, $50 for 10am to 7pm Saturday, and $40 for 10am to 5pm Sunday. Parking is available in advance via Parking Panda, and DART’s Red and Blue lines have a station directly beneath the convention center. For more information, visit fanexpodallas.com.

One of my favorite things about 2020.... businesse One of my favorite things about 2020.... businesses adapting and making things work! I was recently introduced to @savageburritos and I'm in love.  Savage Burritos is the love child of Uncle Julios so it you like UJ, you'll love Savage.  They are a delivery only service offering burritos and bowls from select Uncle Julio kitchens in DFW. We ordered a variety of items from burritos, bowls, queso and more. Every single item was bursting with flavor. If you like spicy,  I highly recommend the Nashville Hot Chicken Burrito. 🔥 Don't forget to add on a Margarita pop - nothing beats alcohol and Mexican food delivered straight to your door!

Order directly from their site your from your favorite delivery service!
I know this year has dragged on and on for many pe I know this year has dragged on and on for many people but it has flown by to me. I'm 100% sure it has something to do with welcoming Myles into this world during the height of a pandemic and keeping a toddler alive at the same time.  I can't wait for Christmas morning to make memories with my little family (even though Christmas shopping isn't complete and I haven't even thought about wrapping presents). It will all fall in to place, it always does. We didn't attend our favorite Christmas events this year or get pictures with Santa so this random Santa picture will do and I'm 100% happy with it.  If this year has taught you anything,  let it be finding the joy in the little things ❤
The holidays are quickly approaching! 🎄 Althoug The holidays are quickly approaching! 🎄 Although things might be a bit different this season, we're still enjoying some of our favorite foods and traditions. This year we're incorporating ordering family meal kits from @chuysrestaurant for not only my family but extended family that we might not be able to hang with this holiday.  It's a simple way to spread the joy with loved ones, eat delicious food and not forget the reason for the season.  #ad #nachoaverageholiday
Family pictures are always so much fun.... this ye Family pictures are always so much fun.... this year we got to attempt it twice thanks to sweet Bryce.  Thankfully the second time around he cooperated. As painful as they may be,  I'm so glad we get these done every year. I love looking back at them and see how much we've all changed and how much the kids have grown!
Can y'all believe the end of the year is here? We Can y'all believe the end of the year is here? We got our family pictures back and they look great other than the fact that Bryce decided not to participate. We got one shot with my entire family and Bryce is off to the side playing in poison ivy. 🤦‍♀️

I wanted to send a quick thank you for all the birthday love yesterday! Birthdays are not my favorite day but it was nice to hear from so many people. Here's to another year around the sun ❤
This weekend we ventured to @kidzaniausa, a city r This weekend we ventured to @kidzaniausa, a city ran completely by kids. Your child gets to fully immerse themselves into role playing any job they can imagine. From checking animals at the veterinarian, putting out fires as a firefighter,  flying planes in an simulator, creating their own personal logo with Bic, or being a weatherman at WFAA - the options are endless! Kidzania activities are for ages 4 and up.

We felt very comfortable inside with their safety protocols. Temperatures were checked before entering.  Everybody ages 4 and up must wear a mask.  Hand sanitizer was readily available throughout the entire space.  If you're looking for a fun outlet for your child to explore, check it out!
