Interesting Benefits of Attending the Detroit Fanfare Comic Con Friday Preview Night

Friday night has less traffic than the rest of the weekend. If you are planning on being at Detroit Fanfare Comic Con for the entire weekend, Friday is a great way to ramp up your energy levels. You can also have a better chance of seeing an industry or media guest up close. With less people around, they are sure you have an extra minute to speak with you.

The Detroit Fanfare Comic Con Preview Night also gives you the opportunity to check out the deals and shop around the convention floor. It is a great time to gauge everything for sale so you can decide which items or comics should enter your collection. The lessoned crowds also helps you to determine the best ways around the convention and a better idea of the overall layout of this year’s show. The addition of the other side of the hotel means there is much more Detroit Fanfare Comic Con than in past years. Give yourself the extra time to check it out.
