Comments about our products and events. |
Some of the charitable causes we support. |
Comic book and entertainment fans owe much to the legendary JACK KIRBY, the revered talent who co-created the Marvel mythology and made many early appearances with us, among his most devoted followers. Although his passing never allowed Jack to see the amazing success of his characters in film we do know that his appearances at conventions always brought down the house!
It is always great when we can personally thank a performer for an absolutely beautifully done job and that was just the treat when John Noble appeared in Feb of 2013 wrapping up his epic FRINGE series, one of our all-time favorite shows!
The beautiful and talented Alfre Woodard graced her stages to reminisce about her appearance in Star Trek as Lily in the movie Star Trek: First Contact, but of course she is best known for being an Academy Award and Grammy nominated actress as well as having an incredible 17 Emmy nominations (winning four).
Our Vegas Star Trek Convention is ALWAYS full of surprises! Sir Patrick Stewart joins William Shatner and Leonard Nimoy in this once in a lifetime moment! We're glad we were there!
In 2006, space pioneers, astronauts Wally Schirra and Alan Bean, guested at Grand Slam: it was an honor!

Three of the most popular actors on the planet graced our stages along with their The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn director: Bill Condon, Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner helped us make history at an official gan gathering done in conjunction with the press junket and in association with Summit Entertainment.
We even had time to publish 6 issues of a popular comic art fanzine called Infinity when we were teenagers. Back in the days before the internet, printed fanzines and conventions helped keep fandom connected.
When we ran The Official STAR WARS Convention we brought in Gene Roddenberry as a surprise and this moment in time was a true highlight. Gene was a great mentor of ours and he is always in our thoughts, especially when we gather for our Official STAR TREK Conventions.
LOST was one of the great TV series of all-time and we were proud to be an official licensee for the show. Here three of the stars, Ian Somerhalder, Evangeline Lilly and Naveen Andrews, grace our stages in a Creation Convention appearance.
Two of our most popular celebrity guests from the Stargate franchise making their only Creation appearance together on stage: Michael Shanks and Amanda Tapping! We love following their careers post Stargate and look forward to enjoying their work for years to come!
How's this for cool? Arnold as THE Terminator at our Official T-2 Convention, an awesome occasion!
A VERY special moment in Creation History
BILL SHATNER & LEONARD NIMOY toasting the 40th Anniversary of Star Trek on the exact day, 4 decades later, that the original series began its TV run! Taken in Chicago at Creation's Salute to Star Trek's 40th! Thanks, Bill and Leonard for being such a big part of Creation Entertainment! Who would have thought that as kids that watched classic Trek, that one day we'd be working with these show biz legends!
History is made again at Creation when LEONARD NIMOY passes the ceremonial "#1 Vulcan" tee-shirt to the new Mr. Spock ZACHARY QUINTO. It all happened in front of the audience at Grand Slam XVI. Creation Conventions: it is ALL about making wonderful memories like this!
Superstar Legend Jack Nicholson made the "Creation" scene, a definite ultra-cool moment in our 40 plus year history!
Growing up watching THE AVENGERS was a particular joy so when Patrick Macnee joined the Creation line-up of stars it was a joyous occasion for us and his many fans!
It's never happened before or after but it was another of our proudest moments: having four STAR TREK Captains share the stage. Let's hope we can pull it off again some day and add a few more?
Long-time Creation friend (and early fan attendee turned superstar producer) DEAN DEVLIN brought along friends Hank Azaria and Harry Shearer to one of our shows. Dean is currently behind one of TV's greatest shows LEVERAGE!
The impeccable Ricardo Montalban created Star Trek's most popular villian as Khan but in person he truly was one of a kind and his two appearances for us were definitely amongst the most memorable! He is sorely missed by all Trekkers and was indeed a Hollywood classic himself!
Gracious and supportive to us as ever William Shatner made sure first time Creation guest star Joan Collins (in her only convention appearance) was comfortable on stage, reunited decades after their ultra-popular classic Trek appearance together!
As promised, a seat for all! Here's a scene of the amazing theatre we used for years for our Las Vegas Star Trek Convention. At Creation shows: no waiting and worrying about seeing the stars!
Pretty Cool we'd say to have welcomed the ultra talented Elijah Wood as Creation promoted several Official LORD OF THE RINGS events. We can't wait to do it all again for the new films!
Here's some shots of Leonard Nimoy's last convention appearance (courtesy of Paul Harvath), taken at our Chicago 2011 Official STAR TREK Convention. Thank You Leonard for your three decade association with Creation: we've loved every minute of presenting you to your adoring fans (of which we number ourselves!):
Leonard Nimoy's emotional farewell to Star Trek Conventions: 2011 Chicago
These guys are HILARIOUS on stage together and we love having them at our events: true superstars of the genre: Jonathan Frakes (now busy directing) and Brent Spiner!

Unlike so many other genre conventions, Creation Entertainment has a strict company policy not to "oversell" our conventions. In other words, every patron, no matter what bracket of ticket they purchase, will have a seat in the main auditorium where the major guests appear and events take place. Nothing upsets us more than hearing about other conventions that sell tickets to patrons and then those very same patrons have to wait on additional lines inside the facility to get into (or sometimes not!) the main theatre. An important Creation Entertainment difference we want you to know about!
The Creation difference extends to our 40 years experience in running fan conventions. In the last few years we've seen promoter after promoter fail taking hard earned ticket money down with them. Inexperienced promoters, often first-timers, use celebrity images and names to get ticket money which they use to hopefully pay their expenses. When that fails they've already gone through "your" ticket money and they collapse leaving no recourse for ticket holders.
They say "buyer beware" but this has happened in Twilight, Star Trek, Battlestar Galactica, and Firefly fandom (to name just a few) and we really feel for those great fans who have lost their ticket money and upset travel plans. |

**All Convention tickets have a $7.75 shipping/handling fee charged per ticket ordered. This applies to all online, phone, fax and mail orders.

All guests are announced when contracted, and all convention contracts include clauses allowing actors to cancel if they get film and/or television work. In the rare case of a guest cancellation we always try to do our best to replace performers. We can not, however, refund tickets for a convention admission based on a guest cancellation, beyond of course specific autograph and/or photo op tickets.
For those attending our conventions and making travel plans: please know that the majority of guests that appear on stage do so usually in the later part of the day (although that is sometimes different for actors working on a current series). Sometimes autographing runs into the early evening or later when guests appear late in the day. Because we have to wait for guests to give us their flight information we can not tell you in advance when these autograph sessions will occur until the convention schedule is posted at this website a few days before the event.
If you plan on buying your tickets at the door PLEASE make sure not to buy tickets from anyone other than our box-office. There have been many cases of counterfeiting and since we check every ticket at the door we have had to turn away folks who have bought from "scalpers" in a hallway or parking lot on the way into our conventions. PLEASE BE CAREFUL!

HUDSON LEICK(Callisto). Hudson will appear on stage Friday and attend the Sunday Breakfast. She will also be doing her popular Yoga Workshop on Friday (tickets will go on sale soon at $119 per person). She also is planning a new "free form dance" workshop for Saturday described as such:
The practice of 5Rhythms dancing which is often described as moving meditation, was created in the late 1960s by Gabrielle Roth, who distinguished five rhythms common to all humans....
FLOW, STACCATO , CHAOS , LYRICAL, STILLNESS
When she combined these rhythms together, Gabrielle Roth discovered they can liberate the creative spirit inside each of us, regardless of our body type, age, or ability. There are no specific steps to learn, no choreography to memorize, and most importantly: no way to do it wrong.
In dancing the 5Rhythms, Gabrielle said, "they initiate us back into the wisdom of our bodies and unleash movement's dynamic healing power."
We will be offering special lower than normal room rates for the hotel as we get closer to show date and the site for the convention is launched.

THANKS to all our great fellow area fans and super-special guests for giving us one of the very best and most fun gatherings to date and Jensen's first area appearance! We aerr thrilled to announce that JENSN ACKLES, JARED PADALECKI and MISHA COLLINS, television's hottest stars have graciously cleared their schedules this early so their amazing fans world wide can make their holiday plans to be with us in New Jersey. And don't forget that our glorious host hotel is VERY CLOSE by transit to Manhattan's greatest tourist spots and for those that like to gamble and enjoy the nightlife Atlantic City is not that far away either. So make your convention visit into a full scale holiday highlighted by the J's and Misha (you can't beat that!). Lots of cool additional guests will be added to the list and although it will be hard to top we're out to make 2014 New Jersey an even bigger and better event than the record breaking 2013 visit. We can't wait to see you.
SPECIAL LOWER THAN NORMAL ROOM RATES WILL BE GRANTED TO THOSE WITH THE CONVENTION SO PLEASE DO NOT BOOK YOUR ROOMS UNTIL A SPECIAL MESSAGE LAUNCHING THE SITE IS DONE. IT SHOULD BE SOON AS WE ARE WORKING ON IT NOW
