The Two Gay Geeks have a chat with Brandon Rhea, Social Media Manager for Square Egg Entertainment, the parent company of Phoenix Fan Fusion. Brandon filled us in on the specifics of their new signature event, “Queen Lantern Corps, Dragstravaganza”. We also learned about his career and how he came to work for Square Egg and what is in store for Fan Fusion. It was an exciting conversation about a new fandom for folks to celebrate, not to mention inclusivity in fandoms as a whole.
About Phoenix Fan Fusion
Phoenix Fan Fusion is a multigenre entertainment and comic book convention held annually in Phoenix, Arizona. It was founded as the Phoenix Cactus Comicon in June 2002, and originally consisted of a one-day six-hour event held in Ahwatukee, Arizona. PHXFF plays host to comic related panels, programming events, art contests, and autograph signings for all ages. It is a four-day event (Thursday-Sunday) held during the summer at the Phoenix Convention Center in downtown Phoenix. On Thursday evening prior to the official opening of the event, there is a preview for professionals, exhibitors, and select guests pre-registered for all four days.
