For what reason do you go to conventions?

I go to a convention to meet with some guests. I got a chance to meet Peter Cullen, Frank Welker, Vic Mignogna, Todd Haberkorn, Jess Harnell, etc. Those exeperiences I had will always be memorable.

I also love to visit the Artist Alley to see all the really cool things people make and sell fan art. 

err for fun mostly

although some of the guests ive met were prett could reasons as well

Mostly to meet friends. But I do cosplay sometimes. And I have a bad habit of buying way too much stuff from Artist Alley.

I want to go to convention someday for the cosplay and to see what its like, I've come close but it didn't work out. I'd love to see the guests there someday

I cannot attend conventions.  We do not have them where I live.

To meet the guests. I've shaken my hand with Manu Bennett, had a conversation with Bernie Kopell and gotten selfies with so many people at Big Finish Day. The key tip I have to give for anyone going to a convention is to budget for it. Have a limit on what you plan to spend, including autograph fees, photo fees, merchandise etc. Also bring water and food, like muesli bars.  

Me andy Brother go to Gamescom every year but we mostly hang out at the smaller games corner so to see stuff that usualy would fall under our radar 

For the big games there is usally no time or you know 5-6 hours waiting

The reason I go to conventions, primordially, is to have a blast! I love conventions, and have been going to them since 2015. The merchandise, the celebrity panels/guests, the artist alley, the fun atmosphere, the jovial and happy people having a good time, the amazing cosplays, every single bit of it!

I think that conventions like these are amazing, because not only do I have a blast, I also get to share my joy and love of video games/anime/movies/cartoons/TV shows with others who are just as enthusiastic! The friendships formed here can be life lasting, as I have a friend whom I've known for 2 years now! Overall, it's just a fun atmosphere. Especially since the people in conventions are among some of the humblest people you'll ever meet!

Also, I looooove to cosplay!
