Infamous and one of the largest fantasy events in Australasia, Armageddon has now been postponed to Sat 23 & Sun 24 July.
The Armageddon Expo is New Zealand’s ultimate entertainment event, featuring gaming, fantasy and multimedia events.
The Expo will bring its signature brand of pop culture mayhem to the Bay of Plenty region.
#Bayofgeddon 2022 will be Armageddon’s 100th ever event and will showcase the best in gaming, technology, virtual celebrity guests, cosplay and more.
Armageddon Expo founder and director William Geradts says it will be jam-packed full of the geeky entertainment attendees have missed for the past six months. He says partnering with a selection of gaming and technology-focused companies has seen the event evolve.
“While we still have that special brand of geek magic that makes Armageddon what it is, we’ve redefined certain aspects of the show to appeal to a wider range of people,” he says.
“This year we are using our resources and knowledge to focus on bringing the latest and greatest in gaming and technology to our event.”
William says alongside the Ping Zero PC and console set arenas, the event will feature virtual reality and a light-up dancefloor with Just Dance 2022 challenges throughout the weekend.
The line-up of celebrity guests doing virtual panels include stars from Charmed, Supernatural, Batwoman, Batman Beyond and a bunch of other fandoms.
Attendees will also be able to enjoy a huge range of in-show events including the famous Armageddon Cosplay Contest, a Chilli Eating Challenge (with a $1000 grand prize), Squid Game-inspired competitions and more.
