FAMILY ATTRACTIONS

Burp your Baby Grogus and bring them to our Family Zone where you can experience games and activities the whole family can enjoy.

NEW FOR 2024:

• Castle Park – Build a castle, draw your sword, and fight some dragons.
• Tattoo-ine Station - Want to rock the Star Wars fandom without the commitment of a real tattoo? Stop by our self-service temporary tattoo station to get ink from a galaxy far, far away.
• Costume Alley – Let your fantasies become reality when you dress up, play, and snap photos in our Costume Alley.

Explore the world of art and animation with demos and workshops all weekend long. Join pros like Joe Wos as he teaches you how to draw cartoons and discover the world of storytelling with U Cre-8. Check the schedule closer to the show for details.

It's FAN EXPO Philadelphia’s cutest event. Come cheer on the cosplay stars of tomorrow at the Kids' Cosplay Contest. Get ready to shine, little ones.

Whether you’re a Jedi youngling or a weary caped crusader, cosplaying is fun for the whole family. Join our fan-led photo sessions to get the ultimate group pic and meet fellow fans.

Jedi, Sith, and Padawans, get ready to ignite your lightsabers and dive into epic battles at FAN EXPO Philadelphia. These trials will provide (safe) sabers for a full contact battle in hopes of finding the Chosen One. Padawan Battles will be open to warriors 12 years of age and younger. Please note: all participants require a guardian to sign a safety waiver.
