Do the words “Kids Need to Read Geek Prom” give you Geekbumps? Yes! Geek Prom tickets will go on sale online at the Phoenix Comicon website Thursday night, February 10th, at 7:00 PM! They are only $10 each and due to the generosity of our supremely Geektacular sponsor, Bookmans, your ticket will include a photo op underneath the glorious Geek Arch at no extra charge! (One free photo op per ticket holder; image files will be available on Flickr after the convention.) All proceeds benefit Kids Need to Read, a foundation that does not discriminate against Geeks, Dweebs, or Nerds.
Do not be stuck outside the Geeky Gates! The event, which will take place on Saturday, May 28th, from 8:00 PM-Midnight, will be limited to the first 1,000 tickets sold, so do not delay. Last year, this popular event sold out long before the doors ever swished open. Phoenix Comicon has dedicated an entire ballroom to the event this year, but the dastardly and decidedly unGeeky Fire Marshall has decreed that no more than 1,000 Geekified humanoids will be allowed inside this Geek Gala.
Kids Need to Read Geek Prom tickets will only be sold online this year! Simply head on over to the Phoenix Comicon interactive ticketing thingy. Your ticket will have a unique barcode that you will redeem at the door of the Geek Prom. The process is all very Geeky, so no problem for Geek Promees! (Geek Prom tickets may be purchased at a different time than Phoenix Comicon memberships, but you must have a Phoenix Comicon membership to attend the Geek Prom.)
Of course, all of this Geekness happens at Phoenix Comicon, the most Geektabulous pop culture convention in all of Geekdom. If you have no idea what the KNTR Geek Prom is all about, check this out. You will not want to miss out on the fun!
