August 19-21 — Geek’d Con — Shreveport, Louisiana
Since 2015, Geek’d Con has been the premiere comic book and pop culture convention in North Louisiana featuring amazing guests like Michael Rooker, LeVar Burton, comic book legend George Perez and countless others. Geek’d Con, as always, is “For Local Geeks. By local Geeks.”
Thanks to the support of the Shreveport-Bossier community, Geek’d Con has become the biggest Pop Culture event in the Ark-La-Tex, and one of the largest in the entire state of Louisiana.
The geek community in the Ark-La-Tex is pound-for-pound the biggest, and most passionate, groups of geeks you can find anywhere. They’ve displayed their commitment during multiple events across the area, from conventions to weekly game tournaments.
