Northern FanCon tickets are on sale. It's a big discount, but it's a short sale and it won't be repeated later. This is the best time to buy passes to the big event.

"This is the only deal that will happen this year for FanCon tickets," said event director Norm Coyne of UNLTD Media.

You can only get these discounted prices until Nov. 6 at midnight. Three-day passes are $50 (regular $69) and VIP Passes are $175 (regular $225). They make popular Christmas stocking stuffers, staff incentives, neighbourly gifts, thank-you items for the people in your life, and most of all a lot of unique fun for yourself and your loved ones.

Those who buy early are also helping their own entertainment cause. Ticket sales are linked to the VIP talent the organizers can bring in for the 2019 edition.

"The more ticket sales we have in advance, the bigger the guests are we can attract to Prince George for #fancon5," Coyne said. "If we hit our first sales target, we will be submitting an offer on a guest so big that no one will believe it."

The fifth anniversary of the event is an occasion Coyne and the The Citizen hope to elevate.

A tall bar has been set in the past, with the likes of Sean Astin, Kevin Smith, Tia Carrere, Karl Urban, Alicia Witt, Nichelle Nichols, Denise Crosby, Giancarlo Esposito, and the debut guest star William Shatner.

This year the leadoff celebrity announcement is Alan Tudyk, who, said Coyne, "was in Con Man, he was in Firefly, he was K-2SO in Rogue One, his list of credits is just amazing. The collective gross for his films is more than $2 billion."

Cosplayers, visual artists, screen arts professionals, writers and a number of other special guests will be in attendance at the CN Centre-based pop-culture extravaganza coming up May 4-5.

"Whether you have been to FanCon before or not, this is the year that you will not want to miss," Coyne said. "Come celebrate the FanCon legacy and be a part of arts and culture growing our city."
