Can you feel it in the air? San Diego Comic-Con International is only two weeks away. We know you’re making detailed plans about the panels you want to see, lines you’re willing to wait in, and exclusives you want to purchase. While you’re mapping out your convention schedule, don’t forget to factor in Nerdist House at Sparks Gallery. That’s right, we’re returning to the event with entertainment, hang-outs, live Nerdist shows, a VR experience based on the sci-fi series SONA, a party for the 200th episode of Bizarre States and much, much more.

We’re celebrating all things Nerdist, Geek & Sundry, and Alpha with live editions of shows such as Nerdist News, Because Science, and Talkin’ Toons. And you never know who you’ll see at Nerdist House, because all kinds of special guests are stopping by. We’ll have meet and greets with our incredible talent, authors R.A.
