Admission lines start forming early on Saturday morning and doors open at 8am. Yes, attendees will have to get up extra early this time to score some great toys!

Are you tired of paying big bucks just to walk in to a big show? The Steel City Con is by far one of the most reasonably priced conventions of this type for both attendees and for dealers. Promoters of the Steel City Con strongly believe that if Vendor space is offered at a very low price then dealers will be able to sell their items to our attendees for much less than conventions that charge a huge amount of money for dealer space. General Admission for attendees is only $7 and available dealer space is only $75 per table.
