Star Wars Celebration VI Collecting Track
The Star Wars Collecting Track is better than ever at Star Wars Celebration VI with the addition of the Collector’s Social Area!
Organized by Marjorie and Arnie of the Star Wars Action News podcast, the Social Area gives Star Wars collectors the opportunity to network with other Star Wars collectors, learn more about the collecting hobby, and get autographs from authors of books on collecting.
The Social Area will feature collectible roundtable discussions led by collecting experts from across the globe. You can meet other collectors from your area and join a collecting club! Listen to live podcasts about Star Wars collecting from Star Wars Action News, the ‘Chive Cast, and This Week in Star Wars! Meet the owners of some of the most popular collecting websites, and more!
Plus, on Friday night in the Social Area, the underground hotel sales come to you with the Star Wars Collectible Swap Meet! Held in the Social Area, bring some of your Star Wars items to trade! Find the one figure needed to complete your collection, or that one-of-a-kind item you can’t live without.
Stay tuned for a full schedule of events, and be sure to stop by the Collector’s Social Area, room W304.
