STAY OVERNIGHT WITH US
AT OUR HOST HOTEL & PARTY!

Tickets available at the door!

We are VERY excited to be bringing a fantastic weekend event to CHICAGO honoring LUCY LAWLESS & RENEE O'CONNOR and XENA: WARRIOR PRINCESS. It is our very first Xena visit to Chicago (hard to believe!) and with Lucy and Renee and it is sure to be quite memorable as these two ladies are sensational in person. Join us to give Lucy and Renee a Midwest welcome! And, check out this cool official t-shirt design that will be available at the event!

Note: We also have a sci-fi convention at the hotel this weekend in different ballrooms that covers Star Trek, Star Wars and Battlestar Galactica, Lucy and Renee are not part of that. Your GOLD PACKAGE tickets for the Xena Convention, however, will allow you complimentary free general admission passes to that convention in case you want to check out the events and guests there (as long as space allows in that theatre). In case that convention theatre is filled, general admission seating is on a first come-first serve basis for our Xena Gold Attendees.

Sunday, OCTOBER 7

Ted Raimi

Steven L. Sears

Joe LoDuca

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, 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!

You must have an admission ticket to the convention to get autographs or photo ops.

He makes the photo ops memorable and the photos fantastic! Link to our good e-mail section and see how much fans enjoy his work and Creation Photo Ops! LIMIT: TWO PEOPLE PLUS THE CELEBRITY. Please read: PHOTO OP F.A.Q.

Due to security considerations and guest concerns we can no longer facilitate the giving of gifts to guests at the photo op sessions. We will be happy to accept gifts for our celebrity guests after 3pm daily at registration and we will gather them and make sure the guests get them. Please note that because guests usually travel by plane they are unable to take gifts home with them. We hope you understand the security issues involved. Thank you!

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.
