Most Trekkies know about the star-studded ST-LV: Trek To Vegas, coming up in August to celebrate Star Trek's 60th anniversary, but those who can't make this mega-con do have another option now. Creation Entertainment, the company responsible for the Trek to Vegas, is bringing another fun-filled convention to Philadelphia this fall.
ST-PHL: Trek to Philadelphia, a two-day celebration of all things Star Trek, is coming to the Sheraton Philadelphia Downtown hotel on Saturday, Nov. 14 and Sunday, Nov. 15 (per Creation Entertainment). This event will feature Star Trek actors from across the franchise, so there's something for everyone to enjoy.
Fans of Star Trek: Voyager won't want to miss this event, as some of the series' most iconic actors will appear for panels, autographs, photo opportunities (sold separately), and more. Meet the iconic Kate Mulgrew (Kathryn Janeway) and Jeri Ryan (Seven of Nine).
Deep Space Nine fans need to make it to this convention, as guests such as Cirroc Lofton (Jake Sisko), Terry Farrell (Jadzia Dax), Nana Visitor (Kira Nerys), and many more will be there to share their DS9 experiences and sign autographs.
Stars from other series like Discovery, Picard, and Starfleet Academy, including Bella Shepard (Genesis Lythe) and Romeo Carere (Ocam Sadal) will also attend.
While the celebrity guest list for ST-PHL shines brighter than Orion's Belt, there's so much more to do and see. A genre-themed trivia game, a jam session with The Roddenberries band, cosplay contests, and vendors will keep guests entertained all weekend long.
From VIP seating to general admission passes for both days, there are four packages available for ST-PHL.
The Gold Weekend option gives visitors an all-access pass to the con, including these perks: priority and reserved seating, free passes to the Saturday night party featuring The Roddenberries, pre-registration for the con itself, and free autographs from Mulgrew and Ryan! This is the gold standard package, which starts at $549 ($850 for first row panel seating, with about 30 left available at the time of this writing).
The Captain's Chair package includes some of the perks of the Gold package, including a free autograph from Ryan, tickets to the Saturday night party, preregistration, and priority access for autographs and photo opportunities for $349 (around 25 left).
For those on a budget, the Copper and General Admission packages offer perks like reserved seating, early admission to the vendor's room, and the chance to see all the stars. At $229 and $99, respectively, these packages still give you plenty of access to all the fun. Approximately 25 Copper packages and 134 GA seats remain.
