I took my sons to JoeFest in 2021 and we had a lot of fun. It was a great, short visit. We only went to the convention on Saturday and did a lot of swimming at our hotel and some other shopping on the other days.
I'd love to do it again sometime but it is a long drive for me from Michigan and the winding roads toward the end of the trip really wore me down last time. I'm not a big fan of driving as it is. I do not yet have any vacations planned for this year so this might be a good year for me to go again. Otherwise, I may try to find similar conventions that are closer to home. I don't think COIL Con (Ohio) exists anymore, unfortunately. I would have liked to try that one.

I'm hoping to go this year. If I do, I'll end up driving up from Ft. Lauderdale for the weekend.

I've been to JoeFest every year. My buddy and I started going to this once JoeCon stopped. I think JoeCon's last year was in Tennessee. JoeFest has always been in Augusta. It's a lot of fun. Honestly though one day will be enough for you. Friday most of the "Guest Celebrities" aren't there. If you want the full experience Saturday is probably the best day to be there as all of the vendors and celebrities are there as well as that is the day most of the panels take place. Friday is just toy hunting and Sunday is seeing what deals you can get from vendors.
Lots of great places to eat downtown and all around Augusta. It's a lot of fun if you get a chance to attend.

Less than two months away now. I see Keone Young will be there. It's still fun to think that Storm Shadow was voiced by Mr. Wu from Deadwood.

Less than a month away now. I've begun the shift from dreading the drive to looking forward to the weekend itself.
Anyone looking for anything crazy while they're there this year? |

I had no idea. That's wild. Now it's like SS moved to Deadwood to retire in secrecy after a life of ninjaing. But Deadwood is actually in the far flung future and actually a part of West World.

I’m heading over this year. Snuck the weekend in as part of a family holiday! Don’t know what to expect really. I’ve been to a couple of Orlando Joe Cons so hopefully it’s something similar.

It's different in a lot of ways. It's more of a general "toy show" than JoeCon was. There's less "officialness" because of the lack of Hasbro involvement. But the indie presence is mighty, and there's a ton of great stuff on the dealer floor.

Mark 2 Design posted that they're doing head scans at their booth this year so you can get custom heads of yourself printed. This is very exciting. I'm encouraging all of my friends... so I can do lewd things with figures of them.
