Weekend tickets are now available for Retro Con 2025!

Retro Con does things a bit different. If you can only come to the show on Saturday or Sunday, you can simply buy your ticket at the door on your day of choice. Day passes are just $20 either day, and kids 12 and under get in for free with paying adult. We’ll have multiple cash lines open for Saturday morning to help keep ahead of the initial crowd.

If you’d like to buy a weekend ticket however, they can be purchased in advance at the link below! Weekend passes are $33, with NO additional fees at check-out. A weekend ticket gets you a slick Retro Con attendee badge with lanyard, and we start letting in weekend ticket holders at 9am on Saturday (pre-check begins at 8:30am). This is an hour before General Admission begins, so consider this your “Earlybird” pass option! And again, kids 12 and under get into the show for free, and do not require a badge.

Can you buy a weekend ticket even if you only plan to attend the show one day? Absolutely! Some people buy the weekend pass simply for the badge and to get into the show early on Saturday. But we’ve got over 300 tables of shopping to check out, plus special guests, free-play arcade games, panels, contests, post-con activities, and a whole lot more. Well worth spending your entire weekend with us!

Back to the retro! Mark those calendars for Retro Con 2025, September 6th & 7th in Oaks, Pennsylvania!

We’ll be back in Hall A at the Greater Philadelphia Expo Center, giving us a 67,500 square foot show floor (over 80,000 if you include our lead-in hallway and panel room!) with more than 300 table spaces of retro-related collectibles for sale! Expect toy line favorites such as Transformers, GI Joe, He-man, Hot Wheels, TMNT, ThunderCats, Star Wars, MASK, Battle Beasts, Madballs, Real Ghostbusters, and many more! Also video and board games, comics, trading cards, LEGO, wrestling, dolls, diecast, playsets, model kits, 2D/3D art, tabletop games, physical media, and much more. From casual to hardcore, vintage to modern, we’ve got collecting covered!

Not just a toy show though… Retro Con is a full-fledged convention! We’ve got special guests, panels, contests, costumes, tv/movie cars, games, and an atmosphere all our own. Perfect for either a day trip or a full weekend stay!

The antidote to ridiculously priced geek conventions, we’re still just $20 at the door on Saturday or Sunday, or you can buy an advance weekend pass for $33 (with no additional fees at check-out). Kids 12 and under get into Retro Con for free with paying adult, and vehicle parking is always free at the expo center!

A huge THANK YOU to RetroDaze for sponsoring us!

Yeah we know, we’re always extremely lazy about the wrap-up posts. Cut us some slack, we’re a couple of aging geeks with regular jobs and we need our rest! 😛

Nearly a month late, but Thank You so much to everyone that came out to Retro Con 2024!! Even with conventions and toy shows cropping up all around us, along with all the craziness that comes along with an election year, and a health issue that kept one of us sidelined for a month or two, we’re still holding our own, and once again managed to beat our all-time attendance record!

And we feel like as the years go on, we’re moving further and further into “convention” territory. We only have the show as a once a year event because we want it to feel special. And while we always aspire to be humble and modest people, we’re also always glad to see so many people treating the show as a “not miss” event. We don’t get a lot of time to enjoy the show at large, so it’s always great to see everyone mingling with friends old and new, shopping the vendor floor, meeting the guests, playing the arcade games, dressing in costume, checking out the panels, and participating in the contests. But ultimately what makes a show fun and memorable comes down to what people bring to it.

Our thanks go out to all our attendees, vendors, guests, guest handlers, Press outlets, show sponsors, anyone that dressed in costume, our panel room A/V man Tom, panel room mods, the Cybertronic Spree, the tv/movie car owners, costume groups, Oaks Expo Center, anyone that supported and/or helped us promote throughout the year!

As always, our biggest thanks go out our staff and volunteers! They are getting too numerous to list here, but we want to let them all know how much we truly appreciate their massive help every year. From hall set-up and breakdown, to airport runs, floor work shifts, food runs, guest assistance, and even giving us help and guidance throughout the year. We can only plan out so much in advance when it comes to a convention, and our staff and volunteers are always willing to jump in to cover our backs when plans change. And we love them for it.

We haven’t made plans for a 2025 show yet, but we do hope to have one! So keep watching our pages. Thank you once again to everyone that attended or supported the show in any way!

LAST CALL FOR WEEKEND TICKETS FOR RETRO CON 2024!! We will stop preselling advance weekend tickets on Wednesday, September 4th!! After that it will cash-only at the door either day.
