Walker Stalker Con

Continuing to deliver on its promise to provide fans with the ultimate experience, Frontier Touring are thrilled to announce that executive producer, director and special effects creator Greg Nicotero will be in attendance at Australia’s first ever Walker Stalker Conventions this coming February.
 
He will be joined on the all-star line-up by further exciting new additions Steven Ogg(‘Simon’), Pollyanna McIntosh (‘Jadis’), Tyler James Williams (‘Noah’) and IronE Singleton (‘T-Dog’) who are confirmed to join both the Sydney and Melbourne conventions, as well as Seth Gilliam (‘Father Gabriel’) in Melbourne.
 
These new additions will replace Norman Reedus, Christian Serratos and Cooper Andrews who regrettably are no longer able to attend Australia’s Walker Stalker Conventions due to unforeseen scheduling conflicts.

“Unfortunately, Norman can no longer join us in Australia. We’ll miss him, but are so excited for a new season of RIDE. We wish him the best and understand that this time his day job has to come first” – Fan Fest

Walker Stalker Con is the largest zombie, horror and sci-fi convention in the WORLD, with more than 250,000 attendees globally across three countries and twelve cities.

The Australian leg will see thousands of fans embarking on the Sydney and Melbourne Showgrounds in February 2018 for an unforgettable experience for everyone from the diehard fan, to families, to those with an ever-growing interest in the genre. Both cities will be treated to two full days of one-of-a-kind experiences, exclusive panels, cosplay, and celebrity guests.

The event is loved globally by fans and celebrity guests alike:

‘I especially love meeting the little ones at Walker Stalker. Nothing is more special than seeing a child’s face light up.’ – Michael Cudlitz (Abraham, The Walking Dead)

‘I love being around the cast family and having the opportunity to meet my fans in person, it’s a great experience!’ – Katelyn Nacon (Enid, The Walking Dead)

‘I love social media, but meeting fans at Walker Stalker is so much more personal!’ – Ross Marquand (Aaron, The Walking Dead)
