When it comes to geek "cons" I can honestly say I'm somewhat of an expert in this area. In the last 4 years I've attended 6-8 cons a year. And that's taking into account I'm not an exhibitor nor an industry professional. This year's 50th anniversary of San Diego Comicon will be my 16th consecutive one I'll be attending. So when I say the Starwars Celebration is my single favorite con that I've attended over the years is saying a lot. The best way to quantify this would be at SDCC, there's total sensory overload, of which I'm interested in about 30-40%. At Starwars Celebration, there's also sensory overload, of which I'm interested in about 80-90%. Being a huge Starwars fan at such a singularly focused event could be potentially seizure inducing. But when everyone is of the same mindset, it really makes for an incredible experience. Everyone there just "gets it". Some of the most meta cosplays that would be completely overlooked at any other con take center stage at Celebration. Case in point, at this past Celebration, someone dressed up as sand, yes, sand, (because Anakin hates sand) and that was one of the cosplays that became the talk of the con!
