THE OFFICIAL STAR TREK CONVENTION Celebrating the 45th Anniversary of Star Trek The "Official Convention" Celebration of the 45th Anniversary of STAR TREK concludes with our visit to Chicago, one of the true hotbeds of Trek fandom. Join the fun of a full weekend devoted to Gene Roddenberry's legacy and enjoy the guests, events, and fellow fans from around the globe!
 For over forty amazing years we have been fans of the incredibly diverse talents of Mr. Nimoy. Creating one of pop cultures most enduring characters with his Mr. Spock, Leonard has become one of the world's most beloved performers and all of us have enjoyed his contributions to the arts as an actor, writer, director, producer, and photographer. To many of us he IS Star Trek and therefore our Chicago celebration of the 45th Anniversary would not be complete without his presence AND HIS LAST EVER APPEARANCE! |

IN PERFORMANCE: RENE and NANA
of our favorite things about the Official STAR TREK Conventions is the performance extras that we are able to offer thanks to the talent and generosity of our celebrity guests. We are THRILLED to announce that RENE AUBERJONOIS and NANA VISITOR will be reunited on stage to perform a play for us entitled CROSS YOUR HEARTS: Poems and Prose Read by Nana and Rene. While we are all familiar with Rene and Nana's television work, both have starred on Broadway and we're delighted to welcome them to Chicago to appear in the regular Q and A format but more importantly to perform for our audience live!

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.
