Yes, the pandemic is still raging and in-person events are postponed or canceled, but bit shout-outs to organizations like GalaxyCon and Wizard World who are putting on virtual experiences. No, fans will not get to breathe the same air as their favorite celebrities. No, the in-person socialization is missing. Yet cheer up. Fun can still be had in front online from the comfort of ones’ own couch. Grab some coffee, drinks, or snacks and cozy-up with that laptop or phone with GalaxyCon.
GalaxyCon’s February and March schedules include some pretty amazing stars to chat with. Some dig far back into the past and some are from today’s movies and television. Who remembers the “Planet of the Apes” films and TV series? All stemming from the original “Planet of the Apes” film from 1968, these films of the 70s brightened imaginations of all ages back then. “Buffy the Vampire Slayer” fans are dedicated and love all of the content that they can get. Of course, “DoctorWho” enthusiasts can never get enough of David Tennant and Matt Smith. Actors from these shows and more are ready to “hang out” with their fans.
All times are in Eastern Time and the full schedule can be found here. Check out some highlights that Nerd Alert News thought would be fun.
