Centered on a sci-fi theme, the event hosts guests from various worlds including Star Trek, Dr. Who, Stargate, Battlestar Galactica and other favorites. This year celebrity guests include Patrick Stewart (Star Trek: Next Generation, Shakespearean actor), David Warner (Star Trek films and Star Trek: Next Generation television series), David Nykl (Stargate Atlantis), Richard Hatch (Battlestar Galactica) as well as many others. Most of the guests have special autograph and photo sessions scheduled throughout the weekend.

This year will mark the first year the Star Wars professional costuming group the 501st Legion will be in appearance. As a member of the 501st Legion, I will be there in full gear to report on their mission to bring Star Wars to the world of Star Trek. May the force be with me.
