Our mission is to have an all-inclusive convention that includes all facets of the nerd, geek, and pop-culture community to come together and celebrate our combined interests in one fun and immersive event. Our fun-filled event will be accessible to all and allow the different fandoms to reach out to new fans and create an exciting opportunity to share their interests with each other.

So do not miss this FANtastic experience of what will be the newest and most exciting event of the fall! Worlds will be colliding for our return event on Saturday, April 20, 2024, at the Sheraton Mission Valley Hotel in San Diego; so expect an extraordinary experience featuring panels ranging from breaking into industry, to hands-on DIY, to a special cerebral line-up of esoteric panel discussions.
Get fully immersed in this experience which will include gaming tournaments, cosplay fashion shows, musicians and special cultural performances, vendors, unique apparel, fandom merchandise, and other special surprises! It will be like watching a bad guy getting punched by your favorite superhero!
The Fangaea concept started in late 2016 as just an idea between a few friends who are big fans of subcultures and the cons that go with them. After being bitten by a radioactive bat-spider, the idea began to turn into reality when more friends got interested in being a part of making something great and fun for fans of all different worlds.
“Let’s bring all the different worlds together,” like a super-continent of fandoms…and so Fangaea was born.
Our Fangaea committee is made up of sarcastic, optimistic, fun-loving, joke-cracking fans who are nerds, geeks, gamers, cosplayers, movie lovers, and more, and who love immersing ourselves into experiences and we want to do that for others in a funtastic, all-inclusive event. Meet our team here by clicking here – and then we want to meet you, too!
Stay tuned as we share more fun, news, and updates – keep checking back here at www.fangaea.us and at www.facebook.com/fangaeacon!
