After ST:LV

Some things I learned about the amazing actors who play my favorite ST characters...

Sonequa Martin-Green has the most lovely freckles on her nose and when she smiles at you, she really sees you. No matter how brief, she took a moment to 'take in' each person that she interacted with.

Jeri Ryan is the epitome of fun and fiery, and her well-informed activism is FULLY engaged - LOVE.

Rebecca Romijn's eyes are really that intelligent, piercing, and thoughtful.

Gates McFadden is pure wit, sass, and energy. Her welcoming, authentic grace was refreshing.

Kate Mulgrew IS the very definition of 'force of nature.' Her kindness and consideration for fans was automatic. The amount of work that must have taken to cultivate...

This was my very first ST Con ever. I have so many observations about the audiences at the Con, but I'll have to put those into a less-jumbled order before I consider publishing.

hi there! i'm so excited for Anson to be at the Vegas con :) do you have any idea why Ethan Peck isn't scheduled? and do you think there will be more cons they'll be doing this summer? i really want to meet both of them!

Hello! :)

Me too, Star Trek: Las Vegas on August 3-6 is going to be the big one and we might get some SNW s3 tidbits as a special treat!

I don't know why Ethan isn't listed as a guest, it may be a scheduling conflict because of something work related, or he simply hasn't confirmed yet. Other SNW cast members besides Anson who have already confirmed their appearance for ST:LV are Celia Rose Gooding, Jess Bush, Melissa Navia and Paul Wesley.

Ethan, however, is scheduled for Fan Expo Canada on Aug 26-27.

Anson is also scheduled for one con before ST:LV and that is Phoenix Fan Fusion on June 3. Looks like it'll just be photo ops and autographs, no panel.

I do think they'll both attend more conventions this year and have joint SNW panels as usual. :) Last year they did three more after ST:LV (Dragon Con, New York Comic Con, Wales Comic Con), and in 2019, their busiest year, Anson attended five more after ST:LV, four of which were with Ethan (Dragon Con, Dallas Fan Days (Fan Expo Dallas), Destination Star Trek: Birmingham, and Steel City Con.

Going by these past appearances, Dragon Con in late August/early September 2023 may be a possibility, as well as an European con later on. SNW s2 premieres June 15. After it ends, the cast will be free talking about the show, without having to worry about spoilers. Hopefully they join Anson and Ethan at another convention besides ST:LV, like Jess Bush and Christina Chong (and her sweet dog!) did last year for Wales Comic Con! That panel was too adorable for words.

I wish you luck with meeting the cast and am keeping fingers crossed Ethan goes to ST:LV! <3 The SNW family is a lovely, relaxed group and the good vibes really shine through in joint interviews and panels. My impression is they always make the shy cast members who are slightly more reserved and introverted (like Anson), lose their nervousness. Ethan, Christina and Paul seem the most laid back; whenever they're paired with others, their sweetness and vibrancy helps others come out of their shell, there's more banter, teasing, "Hey, do you remember that time we...", you can see the chemistry between everyone, etc. Love a cast that clicks so well!

Thank you for your ask and take care!

Unwelcome Hitchhiker

First, the good news. I had an excellent long weekend in Las Vegas at ST:LV, the annual Star Trek convention that celebrated the 57th year of the franchise. My buddy and I have been attending for a number of years now and truly enjoy hobnobbing with other fans; I cannot emphasize how genuinely fantastic the people are that we meet each year, folks who truly embody the spirit of the show Gene…

And that’s a wrap on 2018! I’ve been working this since August and I’m so glad it’s done!!

I just wanted to share with you all my favourite memories from this year. It all started off with the Golden Globes and boy, didn’t Meryl slay. After last years Golden Globes, she had a lot to prove. And then she was off with press for The Post which seemed nothing but fun. Then we jumped into February and Meryl again scored herself an Oscar nom! The cast of OITNB had their wrap party and Kate was slaying with a new hair colour. Images from The Birds Sing Too Loud were released too. Meryl once again owned the Oscars in a gorgeous red number with Don by her side. And how cute has all the photos of Kate and Bennett been!! And then July hit which was defiantly one of my favourite months. Season 6 of Orange and MM2! My two favourite things!! Seeing Meryl and Kate out and about was amazing. Kate was then at ST:LV in August being the absolute Queen. It was also announced that Kate has finished her second book. Then Meryl came for the win at the US open. Mary Poppins Returns trailer was released and Kate went on a social media binge out of no where! And then, confirmation that Meryl will be a grandma!!

I just want to say thank you to all of you for making this year one of the best! For me, personally, I turned 20, finished uni and a job to go with it. This year has been a big year of growth for me. I’ve done things I’ve would never have dreamt I would ever do and ticked a few big things off my bucket list. I’ve honestly never been happier and it’s because of YOU.

Thank you so much. See you in the new year x Casey x

thank u, next

Creation Entertainment presents The Official Star Trek Convention Las Vegas, August 1-5, 2018!

After the  unqualified success of our 2017 show we couldn't be more excited to announce and open up The Official Star Trek Convention Las Vegas 2018! This show will continue what makes ST:LV so excellent: Putting fans together with the stars, closer  and more personally than anywhere else. With over 100 guests planned for 2018, we are again set to deliver the unique Creation experience people love. From panels you can't see anywhere else, like our TNG 30th Anniversary talk with the cast members, to demonstrations of the makeup and costuming techniques from the original SFX crews, there is truly something for every fan.

In 2017 we were extra lucky, thanks to our friends at CBS, to be able to introduce the cast members of Star Trek Discovery to their soon-to-be adoring fans. This is the sixth time we've been able to introduce cast members of a new Star Trek show, and we know there's nowhere better to do it!

The personal fan experience is something we take very seriously and pride ourselves in here at Creation. From meet & greets, to autographs & photo ops, to concerts starring the celebrities, we give fans every opportunity to have an unforgettable week!

Its always such a pleasure to meet Trekkers from around the world and to see the creativity, passion and kindness that this community has in multitudes. Putting on this show is a task we cherish and we look forward to seeing you in 2018!

Boldly go, friends!

Star Trek Las Vegas Tickets

Sad news! Unfortunately @glomofnit @kaledanvers and i will be unable to attend the 50th anniversary stlv this year. Life came up (we’re moving!!!) and money doesn’t grow on trees. To that end, I have 3 star trek Las Vegas general admission full weekend passes available. I will sell them for 350$ each or all 3 for 1000$. (That’s usd) Pretty simple: you message me for my PayPal or email, you send me the money, I receive the money and send you the tickets. I’m not here scalping or trying to trick any one all I’m doing is trying to recoup my costs. Check out my blog and you can see I’m just a sad nerd who can’t afford to go this year. LLAP

(Edit: I also just cancelled my Rio reservation so as it was previously booked there would be one room available now for the con if someone wants it)

Pictures and descriptions of what happened at the DS9 panel, oh you guys, how I wish I'd been there.

[shonhalock]

Vulcan ships! The T'Plana-Hath and what I think was a Surokk class ship. The Ti'Mur maybe?

Cool cosplay from ST:LV

Kind of feels like that Calypso episode, in an alternate reality.

Las Vegas Culinary Treasures

Food is a huge weakness for me. So, naturally, the same is true of my two main characters. #books #indyauthor

A hidden door in the food court at the Cosmopolitan in Las Vegas led to an unexpected adventure While I am usually in Las Vegas annually to attend the ST:LV convention, every now and then a programming conference for my day job will have a stop there and allow for a second foray to Sin City. That happened to me last fall, sending me to the MGM Hotel and Casino for a full week of nerdy stuff that…
