As George Vlahakis, event coordinator for Astronomicom put it " We’re beyond excited to announce a new home for our eighth Astronomicon! This incredible venue brings back the nostalgic vibe of our first few conventions, and we can’t wait to share more amazing guest announcements with you. Get ready for one of the best Astronomicons yet!”

My favorite Con returns for the 8th time, but it's moved from Livonia to Ypsilanti. George and the Twiztid guys have done it again and started announcing guests for the upcoming event. Billed as Metro Detroit's #1 Pop Culture Convention, Astronomicon 8 will occur April 4th through the 6th at the Ann Arbor Marriott Ypsilanti at Eagle Crest, located at 1275 S Huron Street Ypsilanti, MI 48197.

It was a dream of the Twiztid guys to host a Con. Now it's become a spring staple in metro Detroit.

The first guests have been announced and are starting with a bang!
