NostalgiaCon adds a 1980s car show to their convention this September.

More details were released today for the upcoming inaugural NostalgiaCon. The convention will take place on September 28th and 29th at the Anaheim Convention Center, and will feature a few different vehicles that were made famous in movies from the ’80s.

Someone of the vehicles that will be on display include DeLoreans, Trans Ams, Firebirds, a Family Truckster ala “Vacation”, a “Ghost Buster” ambulance, and more!

As a new convention taking place in a large convention center that is home to such other conventions as WonderCon, DesignerCon, BlizzCon, and more this is a big jump for a new convention.

I, for one, can’t wait to see how this new con on the already crowded con scene turns out, especially since it’s a new theme.

Full press release is below.

Rev Those Engines! DeLoreans and Other Iconic ‘80s Cars are Coming to NostalgiaCon’s ‘80s Pop Culture Convention

LOS ANGELES, CA – August 20, 2019 – (HISPANICIZE WIRE) – Rev those engines because the DeLoreans of “Back to the Future” fame and other iconic ‘80s cars will be lining up for their Instagram pics with fans at NostalgiaCon’s ‘80s pop culture convention (www.NostalgiaCon80s.com), September 28 and 29 at the Anaheim Convention Center.

As part of a partnership with the international DeLoreans Owners Association, and the Southern California DeLorean Club, NostalgiaCon will showcase three different versions of the time machine vehicles that are forever identified with ‘80s pop culture. In a year that has seen both a biopic documentary and a movie released about the life of John DeLorean, the creator of the namesake car, the show will also feature a panel with DeLorean owners and historians.

Other ‘80s vehicles on display include Trans Ams, Firebirds, a Family Truckster ala “Vacation”, a “Ghost Buster” ambulance, and more.

NostalgiaCon’s ‘80s Car Collection is part of the show’s retro set of “Instagrammable Moments” that now include the Epic ‘80s Cosplay and Fashion Show, the National Boombox Museum, the Nod to the ‘90s Pop Up, and more surprises, celebrity photo opportunities and more.
