Collectibes Shows/Events Resource Thread

[digitalbabe]

Hi All,

I thought we could start a thread that keeps a list by state and country, of events and shows related to collectibles, film, and other related memorabilia. If you'd like to contribute, just reply, and I'll add it to the OP. All help is appreciated as I am only familiar with some of the major, most popular ones.

Please list your country, state (or area, if applicable), when the even takes place, and an official website for the event. Feel free to chat about any cool experiences you've had at the events, as well.

A friend of mine scored press passes to Baltimore's Comic-Con last weekend. Mainly we went around taking pictures of people in Cosplay, but also got to see tons of local artists (I bought this print of this artist - http://arzeno.deviantart.com/gallery/?offset=0#/d46gyi9) and got to see Stan Lee.

Here's a photo gallery:
