Who Are We?:

Sci-Fi Valley Con is more than just a convention of 300 exhibitors and thousands of attendees, it’s a family. We put so much love, hard work, and attention into our show throughout the year to develop a heartfelt and memorable experience for everyone to adore. We invite you to join us on June 7-9 in Altoona, PA at the Blair County Convention Center. We pride ourselves on not being like the other corporate, cookie-cutter celebrity guest flea markets. Sci-Fi Valley Con is designed for everyone to have a more personal and intimate experience with all our celebrity guest actors, the exhibitors, and the staff. You will cherish the memories and relationships that will blossom here. Mark your calendars; it’s time to finally come home. We are the convention with culture.

ASCENSION EPOCH REVIEW

Sci-Fi Valley Con is something extraordinary (...) it was just one of several reasons this convention felt more like an experience rather than just another excuse to empty your wallet.

REVIEW

The balance of the con is somewhat different for those used to things like Steel City Con and Pittsburgh Comicon. There are more artists, artisans and small press than there are more conventional dealers.

REVIEW

Part of the fun is the spirit of camaraderie that develops when a few hundred weirdos get together to pretend they're someone (or something) they're not.

Rarely have I felt as welcomed and well-attended to as I have at THE SCI-FI VALLEY CON. Very nice clientele and overall good vibes....."...Or Am I Being Obtuse?..."

Last year was the first Sci Fi Valley Con that i was a part of, and I loved every minute. Everyone was very welcoming and nice. The celebrity guests and exhibitors were amazing and very friendly. It’s definitely a big event that makes you feel like a big family.

The Sci-fi Valley Con was so fun. The people are super nice. Celebrity guests aren’t that expensive and the cosplay is absolutely amazing. I’m definitely going to 2018’s show too. 1000 Stars

The Serene Bean has been a vendor at this event the last few years. It is so fun seeing all the attendees costumed. The show grows each year. The vendors are friendly and the staff is helpful. We look forward to it every year!

Susan Stumpf

Exhibitor

This event was by far the most seamless, well-organized event I've ever attended. I wish all event went this smoothly. The staff were friendly and helpful. The quest concept was just as much fun for the vendors as the attendees I think. Its a great positive atmosphere. This has def been the best event Ive ever set up at. I will be coming back whenever possible.

Sci-Fi Valley Con is an affordable and great experience with so much to see, it's near impossible to experience it all in one day! The guests, panels, and vendors are widely varied and always interesting, the food is delicious, and the Con is fun for the whole family, regardless of age or interests! I'll continue bringing the family (and volunteering as much as possible) for years to come.

I have been going to this convention every year since the first time it was at the Jaffa. I’ve loved every year and it keeps getting better and better. I’ve also volunteered and everyone is so nice. The whole atmosphere of this convention is extremely family friendly. There’s always something there for everyone of all ages. Casey Bassett and his team have bigger and better things every single year. I can’t wait to see what’s more in store for 2018!

This upcoming year will be my 5th year volunteering at Sci-fi Valley Con. I have never been disappointed in a show or about any of the people or vendors Casey is able to find. There is always a slew of things to see and do, which means there is NEVER a dull moment. Sci-fi Valley Con is a big highlight to my year. It's something I can always look forward to and know there will be a good time had by all.
