CONVENTION SEATING & THE CREATION ENTERTAINMENT DIFFERENCE: Unlike so many other genre conventions, Creation Entertainment has a strict company policy not to "oversell" our conventions. In other words, every patron, no matter what bracket of ticket they purchase, will have a seat in the main auditorium where the major guests appear and events take place. Nothing upsets us more than hearing about other conventions that sell tickets to patrons and then those very same patrons have to wait on additional lines inside the facility to get into (or sometimes not!) the main theatre. An important Creation Entertainment difference we want you to know about!
Or call CREATION at (818) 409-0960 ext. 225** , 9:30am - 3pm Pacific Time.

Here are some great shots taken during the 2009 Xena Convention weekend.

One of our long-time attendees had these very nice words to say about our 2009 Official Xena Convention and Lucy Lawless Concert events:
Hi guys!
I am a long time Xena fan. I have bought a gold ticket for every Creation
L.A. area convention since 1998, the 2nd year you had one. Along with
Lucy, I have expanded my Creation con going to include New York, Chicago
and London also.
I want to thank you guys for everything you do to make being a Xena fan
fun. I appreciate so much that you continue to offer the conventions and I
am absolutely convinced that without these conventions, Xena’s fandom
would be much less viable and enthused than they continue to be.
I also want to sincerely thank you for partnering with Lucy to produce her
concerts. I feel that her concerts have rejuvenated the conventions,
making going to the conventions even more enjoyable and satisfying. They
lend an extra special spark to the excitement of the cons. I appreciate
that has to have been/is an economic gamble. But I hope it has repaid you
financially, as it has certainly paid off as highly enjoyable and
satisfying new entertainment for Lucy’s fans. (Even for us hetero folks!)
It’s always a pleasure to see how many Xena cast and crew members appear
at your conventions. To me this speaks of you running a good company, one
that honors its contracts, is flexible in offering individuals a choice of
how to present themselves and one that provides a satisfactory experience
for the folks who brought us the show that we love so much. The fact
you’ve been in this business for over nearly 40 years shows that you know
what you’re doing-and the people who continue to work with you validate
that.
As a long time gold level con-goer I also appreciate how you keep adding
things to the convention schedule to keep us interested and involved with
the folks we come to see. The evening cabaret, the charity breakfast, the
free autographs, the dessert party-if anything, it’s hard time-wise to
keep up with all the “freebies” now. But it certainly has added value to
having a gold ticket-and that too is a pleasure, to see a company that
thinks about how to keep its customers entertained and satisfied and adds
a few bonuses to do that.
So anyway, thank you, thank you, thank you for 11 years of con going
pleasure. Heck, escalating con going pleasure even. It just gets better
all the time.
BRITTNEY POWELL
XENA’s Brunnhilda; GENERAL HOSPITAL’s Summer Holloway Appearing Saturday
ADRIENNE WILKINSON
Eve/Livia
Additional guests to be announced....
ALL GUESTS are contracted to appear and all convention contracts specify that appearances are tentative and subject to change as film and television work demands take precedence as can a personal conflict. Our events will take place whether a specific guest cancels or not (we always try to book replacements) and therefore we can not issue admission ticket or ticket package refunds if a particular guest does not fulfill their appearance contract. Of course we will always refund separately purchased photo ops and autograph tickets for a guest if they cancel.
The vast majority of our guest celebrities take questions from the audience during their on-stage time. Therefore it is incumbent upon those that ask questions to make them ones that allow our mutual shared time with the celebrities to be enjoyable, interesting and entertaining for all (including the guest). Asking for hugs, telling stars we love them (we all do, that's why we're here), giving gifts (you can do this at photo ops), getting into long personal stories, or worse, is not acceptable for this format and, in fact, is quite self-centered when you are in essence "representing" all of fandom to a celebrity. Join us in trying to make this convention the best entertainment for everyone!
Something new this year: the chance for NINE lucky fans to enjoy a party with the celebrity of their choice! These events will be auctioned as we get closer to show date.
Participating so far are:
BRITTNEY POWELL
THE CREATION COSTUME PARADE
The famous Creation Entertainment Costume Parade Competition is always a highlight of the convention. Set for Saturday here is your chance to show off your creative abilities by dressing as any character or making up your own. The winner goes home with a $250 gift certificate but we have prizes for everyone who enters!
Here are the names of the 2009 Music Video Winners

Los Angeles Marriott at LAX

Los Angeles, CA
The LAX Marriott provides a free shuttle service that runs about every 15-20 minutes from LAX to the Marriott.
Creation Entertainment holds a "block" of rooms for our attendees. These blocks of rooms have a lower rate than standard rates at the hotel, but they also have a "cut-off" point after which hotels may choose to revert back to their own higher rates for our customers. Usually this cut off date is one month prior to the event, but this does vary. Therefore it is always wise to book your rooms for our conventions as early as possible.
In order to sell at any California convention you must have a sales tax license. Here is a link for getting a temporary license on-line if you don't have a regular one. http://www.boe.ca.gov/pdf/boe400spa.pdf
A complete schedule will be posted a few days before the event.
