The May 13 after-party happens in two parts. The first is a game of nerdy trivia from 9-11 p.m. hosted by Star Trek’s Ensign Kim himself, celebrity guest Garrett Wang, supported musically by DJ Nige & DJ TyCo. The second half is a dance concert by live band Milky River (ft. members of the Dallas Smith band and The Matinee) doing popular songs including tunes from FanCon movies and TV shows requested by the audience. On May 14, the Cariboo House after-party features visual stimulation by the Bottoms Up Baring Burlesque troupe doing a special nerd-lesque show starring soloist Cherry On Top. After that burst of energy, the music spins over to hit deejay team SkiiTour with their “Music Mountains Magic” showcase. Additional music support will be provided by DJ Nige, and all in partnership with Northern Lights Entertainment. “After the FanCon party all day at the convention, we keep the party going at night,” said Kyle Sampson of PWB. “Cariboo House got big for us during the Canada Winter Games, the city loved it, so we’re keeping
it going with FanCon. It helps the community enjoy some great live entertainment that is presented with a unique feel and atmosphere. It’s a different experience for people than just a night out at a regular nightclub.” All the Cariboo House afterparty festivities take place downtown at Heartbreakers. “FanCon is great for the community, and it’s a perfect event for us to partner with,” said Sampson. “We have a number of products, we are rooted in Prince George, and we want everyone in the region to have a sense of who we are as a local company. FanCon gets us in touch with a wide diversity of people. That’s the best part for me: seeing all the different kinds of fans who come to this event. Some people come for the celebs, some come for the cosplay, some come for the comics and the games, but everyone accepts one another and celebrates all of that together under one roof. We love being a part of that. I wish I could clone myself so I could be in all those rooms at once, because I love it all, too.” MAY2016
