Attendees will also be treated to a large number of Comic Book Artists and Illustrators. Of course, a big reason that most enjoy going to the Steel City Con is to see the hundred of vendors selling new and vintage toys and comic books.
In addition to Celebrity appearances, the Steel City Con is proud to announce that the first 1,000 attendees who purchase a 3 Day Pass will receive a Goodie Bag which is filled with toys and comics valued at more than the price of admission. The Steel City Con is the ONLY Convention in the United States that has consistently given away thousands of toys, comic books and collectibles to its attendees for FREE.
Many Pop Culture fans are tired of paying high admission fees just to walk into a big show. The Steel City Con offers attendees one of the biggest shows in the United States at an extremely low admission cost for both attendees and for dealers. Promoters of the Steel City Con strongly believe that if vendor space is offered at a very low price then dealers will be able to sell their items to show attendees for much less than conventions that charge a huge amount of money for dealer space.
