This is the special weekend that has become the "mecca" for Stargate fans worldwide! A unique gathering that is limited in attendance and upscale in appeal, allowing for the utmost in customer service and attractions. Only 500 fans can be admitted to take part in the unprecedented activities so please make your plans to be with us now!
Through the amazing generosity of the Stargate "powers-that-be" Creation attendees will enter a realm thought to be unreachable: actual escorted tours of the gorgeous soundstages of the shows we love! The 2006 convention was widely heralded as one of the best fan gatherings ever held, but now for 2007, and in celebration of the joyous 10th Anniversary of the Stargate television franchise, we're going through the gate with even more to offer!
The 2006 show had it all: fabulous guest stars, wonderful tours of the SG-1 and Atlantis sets, a hilarious celebrity cabaret night, delicious breakfast and dessert parties, thousands of autographs and photo ops delivered successfully, on-time scheduling, an amazing tour of the show's location shooting on Monday, fun contests, major surprises and news scoops, an incredible over $50,000 raised for Make-A-Wish (our selected charity) and most importantly: tons of friendships made, continued and renewed!

THOR
We are happy to welcome back The Asgardian Supreme Commander THOR, making a rare personal appearance on stage Saturday joined by animatronic controller MORRIS CHAPDELAINE. Thor has also agreed to do photo ops with his many fans (see below for information).
The vast majority of our guest celebrities take questions from the audience during their on-stage time. Therefore it is incumbent upon those that ask questions to make them ones that allow our mutual shared time with the celebrities to be enjoyable, interesting and entertaining for all (including the guest). Asking for hugs, telling stars we love them (we all do, that's why we're here), giving gifts (you can do this at photo ops), getting into long personal stories, or worse, is not acceptable for this format and, in fact, is quite self-centered when you are in essence "representing" all of fandom to a celebrity. Join us in trying to make this convention the best entertainment for everyone!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Convention Events:
STARGATE PRODUCTIONS & MGM GENEROUSLY TEAM UP WITH CREATION ENTERTAINMENT TO OFFER TWO WALK ON ROLES on the STARGATE FRANCHISE (either on SG-1 movies or Atlantis, to be determined).
These will be auctioned off at our famous AUCTIONS held at the convention (it is hard to believe but we've been doing auctions at our shows for over 35 years!!). Last year our amazing attendees raised a ton of money (the visits went for $9,000 each) for the producers' selected charity of MAKE-A-WISH (one of our faves too, in fact we just set up a MAKE-A-WISH client visit to our big Star Trek Convention in Las Vegas that was a truly wonderful pleasure for us).
So get ready to make a dream come true and be part of entertainment history by appearing on Stargate and making someone else's dream come true too!
NEW STARGATE MOVIES COMING FROM MGM, READ THE PRESS RELEASE!
THURSDAY NIGHT: THROUGH THE GATE CHOCOLATE FANTASY WELCOMING PARTY & BINGO BASH (10pm): Separate Ticket Required.
This is an all-new event for Vancouver. We did something similar at our Las Vegas Star Trek Convention and it was a huge hit getting everyone in the mellow rich chocolate mood for an extra exciting weekend. A chance to meet fellow fans from around the world without the pressures of "convention" scheduling while relaxing with a delightfully sinful array of chocolates. Put your diets behind as you enter through the gate to a fun-filled weekend. The buffet features Chocolate Decadence Cake and Truffle, Chocolate Fondue with marshmallows, diced melons and sponge cake squares, Mini-Chocolate Cups filled with Mousse, and Chocolate Terrines. As an extra cool treat: we'll be playing STARGATE THEMED BINGO: WITH LOTS OF SUPER STARGATE PRIZES! Everyone has a chance to win and it is a laugh riot! And, we'll have some celebrities to welcome everyone to the convention and to the beautiful city of Vancouver!
