FAQFrequently Asked questions inquire
The Kingdom Fest is more than just an event; it's an exhilarating celebration packed with panels, cosplay, vendors, and a universe of fun! Attendees will have the opportunity to dive into a world where comics, movies, TV shows, gaming, and all things pop culture come to life!
The Kingdom Fest will be held at the renowned Chateau Elan, located just outside of Atlanta, GA, on Dec 8th, 9th & 10th.
The Kingdom Fest is employing several union workers for the event as staff, crew, and photographers, production assistants, stunt coordinators, zombie teachers, etc. In addition we are offering complimentary exhibitor booths (valued at $1,000) to sell their unique goods and services. The Kingdom Fest is also coordinating an Angel Tree which will help to provide financial assistance for hundreds of Atlanta film crew families and their children impacted by the recent strike. Families in need will register, while Angels provide help in many ways: utility bills, groceries, toys, clothes, shoes, etc. The gifts will be distributed to the families the week following The Kingdom Fest!
