That's not all. WynterCon X is also playing host to some amazing exhibits, interactive attractions and photo opportunities this October. So far they have announced a full size and accurate replica of the iconic Ghostbusters vehicle, Ecto-1, and Johnny (number) 5 from the classic 1986 movie, ‘Short Circuit’. A plethora of hand crafted replica props from the movie ‘The Labyrinth’ and even two animatronic baby dragons that are over a whole two metres long!
Another huge highlight is the return of the infamous Cosplay Hall. An entire hall dedicated to the craft of costuming with it’s very own displays, photo opportunities, stage area and adjudicated competition for anyone to enter (and even features prizes for the respective winners). All made possible by the philanthropic, local broadband provider, Lightning Fibre.
Last but not least, the Worksop Hall, in partnership with Sky Creative Sussex, WynterCon’s Charity Partner. This will be filled to the brim with educational workshop tasters based around the charity values including arts, crafts, computer programming and, as always, much more.
If that isn't enough to sink your teeth into, there will also be a fully featured trade floor filled with hand picked vendors of all varieties including toys, homewares, sweets and treats, prop weapons, table top gaming and accessories, jewellery and so much more.
Join the fun and festivities this October 14th - 15th at the Eastbourne Winter Garden. Full details and tickets can be found on the official WynterCon Website www.WynterCon.org.
