Geek’d Con: Shreveport 2017

Hosted by Geek’d Con

Geek’d Con. For local geeks. By local geeks.

Thanks to the support of the Shreveport-Bossier community, Geek’d Con has become the biggest Pop Culture event in the Ark-La-Tex, and one of the largest in the entire state of Louisiana.

The geek community in the Ark-La-Tex is pound-for-pound the biggest, and most passionate, groups of geeks you can find anywhere. They’ve displayed their commitment during multiple events across the area, from conventions to weekly game tournaments.

We’re proud to help provide a fun, safe, family-friendly atmosphere for all aspects of our geek community to get together.

Vendors of all shapes and sizes; comic book stores, cell phone retailers, video game outlets, book stores, hobby shops, artists, writers, and more. The event will also feature National Headliners including comic book artists, stars of TV and film, and professional cos-play groups. Geek’d Con will also host a full-scale cos-play competition. The potential for live-interactive sponsored events and panels exists as well.

Convention Hours
Friday: Vendor Preview Night (Public Event) – 6pm-9pm
