Although FanX is still months away, the excitement is already building! Organizers have started revealing the lineup of celebrity guests set to appear at the highly anticipated pop culture event in Salt Lake City. The first 10 guests were officially announced, featuring stars from hit series like The Walking Dead, Schitt’s Creek, and Hazbin Hotel.
FanX founder and show producer Dan Farr expressed his enthusiasm for unveiling the first batch of guests, emphasizing the thrill of giving fans the chance to meet their favorite stars.
“One of the best parts of FanX is seeing fans connect with the actors and creators who have influenced them,” Farr said. “There’s a saying that you shouldn’t meet your heroes, but our experience over the years has proven otherwise. The celebrities we bring in are incredibly gracious with fans, making every interaction memorable.”
Farr noted that last year’s event had record-breaking attendance, and many celebrities return due to the warm reception they receive from attendees.
“The support from the community has been phenomenal,” he added. “Because of the welcoming atmosphere and enthusiastic fans, our lineup keeps getting better every year.”
