I am finding that there is a big uptick in these sort of events as actors are getting older, and folks are realizing a successful convention can net you a couple of million after expenses when done properly.
As such there are a lot of new cons and it is taking away from the established ones and making things seem not quite as large as they once were.
Things are getting to a point where it is scaring off some of the bigger names and they are being more careful to vet out new and unheard of events with ever more scrutiny.
The trick is to find events that have, stars, vendors, and other events mixed in and enough room to accommodate anyone that wants to attend. Unfortunately the cities are starting to see the revenue streams that they can make and they are actually making it expensive to host events in city owned/managed buildings.
So in short, know the con. Be very careful about new ones.
My rule of thumb going forward is to not attend events unless the hotel is attached.
