Geek Of The Week: FaerieCon

Hello and welcome to another Geek O da week. Today its all about a FaerieCon. I have just recently found out about this event that has been going on for years now. I was reading a blog somewheres on the Internet and there was a link for FaerieCon. I was like what the hell is FaerieCon? Well I found out and I will share this info with you.

This is taken strait from their site: “Faericon brings magic of Faerieworlds, the West Coast’s premiere mythic music festival, to the East Coast. Array yourself in your most beautiful faerie finery, don your wings, gather your friends and family and cross the threshold! Once inside, you will find the largest gathering of faerie artists and authors in the world who look forward to meeting you, amazing, magical apparel, beautiful jewelry, mysterious masks, handmade crafts, fashion shows, performers, musicians, storytellers, exhibitions, panel and workshops.”

You had me at Faericon but I will stay to see my friends and family cross the threshold. Right? I mean come on who wouldn’t want to don their wings and release their inner faerie that shines in all of us. So Faericon started because they wanted to bring the magic of Faerworlds to the east coast.  I was like what there is another con that spawned this con and then I saw the videos for Faerieworld.

The event looks crazy with Ents and giant Centaurs walking around. Maybe this is what hippies have transformed into. From the looks of it there seems to be a pretty decent amount of people that participate in this thing. They have live bands and other performances. There is a full vendor section so you can swap incantations and buy the latest in Faerie gear. They also have the typical Con costume contest. I think I have seen most of the same people appearing at the SD Comic Con.

All in all it looks pretty interesting and I am pretty sure that if I was in the area I would definitely go and check it out. It looks like a people watchers paradise. The whole thing probably smells of patchouli and sage, which unlike most people, am completely fine with. If you need more info check out their sites: Faeriecon.com and Faerieworlds.com.  You will find a lot more info, photos, videos, and Faerie products that should satiate your interests. Until next time, Street Fece out!
