G-Fest is the largest regular gathering of Godzilla and Japanese monster fans in the world. Held each summer, G-Fest typically attracts about 1000 or more attendees. G-Fest is a family-oriented convention which caters to a wide variety of interests within the kaiju genre. G-FEST features presentations and Q & A sessions by actors and crew from the Japanese Godzilla and Gamera series, fans presentations on topics of interest, contests and gaming, new and classic kaiju movies, the western world's largest kaiju-oriented dealers room, and lots of fun!
