Shreveport's comic con, Geek'd Con, is set to return August 19th-21st at the Shreveport Convention Center. The 2022 Geek'd Con will be the 7th show in Downtown Shreveport since 2015.

Geek'd Con is Shreveport's version of events like San Diego Comic Con or Dallas Fan Expo. It's a huge event to celebrate fandoms in the Ark-La-Tex. You will be able to shop from hundreds of vendor booths, participate in cosplay contests, win prizes, and hang out with friend

You can meet stars like Matthew Lillard, Skeet Ulrich, Jamie Kennedy, Dog The Bounty Hunter, Clint Howard, Natasha Henstridge, and more.

Inside the event, you will find retail vendors, crafters, writers, artists, and celebrities representing fandoms from horror movies to anime, and everything in between. Not to mention the major comic book artists from Marvel, DC, and Scout Comics, who will be doing custom artwork that weekend.

One of the best parts of the event every year are the panels. This is an opportunity to hear great stories and learn valuable information. Where celebrities will tell fantastic tales, and industry experts will share their insight.

In 2021, Geek'd Con was unable to have panels. But they're back for 2022, and in a new location. The US Army Panel Room will now be UPSTAIRS at the Shreveport Convention Center!
