Shreveport's comic con, Geek'd Con, is coming back to Downtown Shreveport this August. The 2024 Geek'd Con will take place August 16th, 17th, and 18th, at the Shreveport Convention Center.

Tickets for this year's Geek'd Con are available right now. You can get yours here.

The guest lineup will include award winning actor Billy Zane, Scrubs star John C. McGinley, the voice of Master Chief Steve Downes, Walking Dead star David Morrissey, the voice of Mickey Mouse Bret Iwan, and many more incredibly talented celebrities. Including some great comic book creator talent.

Originally, horror movie icon Tony Todd was set to appear. But Tony has had to postpone his appearance in Shreveport until 2025. Which opened up a space on the 2024 lineup. That spot was filled right away by an actor who is having a really big year.

Kevin Durand will now be joining the Geek'd Con lineup.
