GalaxyCon San Jose 2025: Renowned Celebrities, Convention Turmoil, and a Cherished Dream Realized
GalaxyCon San Jose 2025 returned to the San Jose McEnery Convention Center, bringing together fans of all ages for a weekend filled with excitement and nostalgia.
The convention featured a star-studded guest list, including Jeremy Renner, William Shatner, Vincent D'Onofrio, Danny Trejo, Johnny Yong Bosch, Tara Strong, Brandon Rogers, Erica Lindbeck, Mark Waid, Rose Besch, Ben Templesmith, Kevin Nowlan, Joe Wos, Guy Hutchinson, F.C.

The vendor hall was dominated by vendors selling handmade goods, collectibles, comics, toys, and rare finds, providing ample opportunities for attendees to indulge in their fandoms. A dedicated family zone offered kid-centered activities, ensuring that the convention was enjoyable for all ages.
However, the convention faced some challenges in its execution. The celebrity area was congested and difficult to navigate, with long lines and little room for people to move freely. The convention schedule had fewer panels and less variety in programming compared to previous years, leaving some fans wanting more. The vibe of GalaxyCon San Jose 2025 reminded the author of the old Silicon Valley Comic Con, where excitement and community outweighed the logistical headaches.
Despite these flaws, GalaxyCon San Jose 2025 proved that San Jose still has the energy and audience for a large-scale fandom gathering. The author even had an unexpected encounter with Joey Fatone of NSYNC, a childhood idol, adding an extra dose of excitement to the weekend.
The organizers of GalaxyCon San Jose are expected to continue refining the experience for fans in the 2026 edition. The 2026 edition of GalaxyCon San Jose will take place from August 21 to August 23, 2026, at the San Jose McEnery Convention Center. Fans can look forward to another weekend of celebrity encounters, family fun, and all things pop culture.
