Announcing BloodLust Vampire Festival Featuring Kellan Lutz from Twilight
EyeCon Celebrity Conventions has announced the launch of an all new, multi-fandom vampire festival they are calling “BloodLust“. It is taking place in Orlando, Florida on January 15-17, 2010. The event will feature celebrity guests from various vampire related movies and television shows such as Twilight, The Vampire Diaries, True Blood, Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Supernatural (okay, we here at Convention Fans haven’t seen Supernatural, but we assume it has vampires on occasion?).
The new BloodLust convention will be “a haven for all vampire enthusiasts as they will be able to congregate and indulge in vampire related games, panels, costume contests and activities with other people with the same interests.”
The first confirmed guest for BloodLust is Kellan Lutz, who plays Edward Cullen’s brother “Emmett” in both Twilight and the newly released sequel New Moon. Also appearing is the band The Nova Echo. Expect more guests to be announced as the convention gets closer.
Ticket sales for BloodLust launched on November 25, 2009 at 12pm Eastern. General Admission ticket prices are as follows: Fri Only - $10.00; Sat Only - $20.00; Sun Only - $20.00; or Weekend - $40.00. There are special ticket packages that include extras, such as reserved seating, admission to concerts, an autograph, and more. These packages range from $85 to $195, depending on which one you select.
The convention is taking place at the Florida Hotel and Conference Center on 1500 Sand Lake Road, in Orlando, Florida (Phone: 407-859-1500).
