The fun starts on Saturday, August 22nd at 10 a.m. PDT on DCFanDome.com, when fans across the globe will be immersed in the DC Multiverse, and be the first to hear announcements from WB Games, Film, and TV, as well as DC Comics. Get ready to hear from the casts and creators of Aquaman, The Batman, Batwoman, Black Adam, Black Lightning, DC Super Hero Girls, DC’s Legends of Tomorrow, DC’s Stargirl, Doom Patrol, The Flash, Harley Quinn, the SnyderCut of Justice League, Lucifer, Pennyworth, SHAZAM!, The Suicide Squad, Supergirl, Superman & Lois, Teen Titans GO!, Titans, Watchmen, Young Justice: Outsiders, and this fall’s hotly anticipated Wonder Woman 1984.

Attendees will get the latest news and exclusive footage, and explore themed worlds designed for everyone from movie and TV superfans to gamers and readers to families and kids. There will be special presentations to engage fans in every time zone on Earth. Inside this virtual world, fans will also get access to localized events, featuring the faces and voices from countries around the world in their local language. So no matter where you live, your age or your level of fandom, there’s something for you.

Here are the official deets, as well as an illustrated map…

Exploring the DC FanDome

The epicenter of the DC FanDome is the Hall of Heroes, where you can experience special programming, panels and content reveals from a wide variety of films, TV series and games, available in several languages, including Brazilian Portuguese, Chinese, English, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Korean and Spanish. From there, navigate deeper into the DC Multiverse, exploring five additional satellite worlds, each with its own localized content and unique activities and one world fully devoted to our younger fans:

DC WatchVerse: Here’s where you grab a seat, sit back and join our virtual audience and become completely engrossed in hours of must-see content from around the world. Everything from panels and exclusive screenings to never-before-seen footage, featuring cast, creators and behind-the-scenes crew from across DC Films, TV, Home Entertainment and Games.

DC YouVerse: Venture into this world where the FANS are the stars to see the most amazing user-generated content, cosplay and fan art from around the world, including, perhaps, your own.

DC KidsVerse: Need a way to entertain your kids for hours on end? We’ve got you covered inside a special world, which can be accessed directly at DCKidsFanDome.com. This area features a broad range of family-friendly activations for our younger fans.

DC InsiderVerse: This creativity-based world contains a centerpiece video featuring legendary artist and DC CCO/Publisher Jim Lee, President of DC-Based Film Production Walter Hamada, and creator of the DC TV Arrowverse, Executive Producer Greg Berlanti, welcoming fans with a 101-style introduction to the DC Multiverse. From there, go behind the scenes with the master artisans who bring DC to life in all its forms, from comic books to games, TV, movies, theme parks, consumer products and more.

DC FunVerse: Take your DC FanDome experience and gather cool shareables; check out our comic book reader; DIY cool WW84 Golden Armor and Batmobile kits; plus digital giveaways and a store filled with merchandise, including some limited-edition exclusives.

Pull Up to the Blerd & Boujee House

Where my Blerds at? The second annual celebration of Black nerd culture returns with the all-new Blerd & Boujee House at DC FanDome, bringing Blerds, LatinxGeeks and all nerds “party-with-a-purpose” vibes. As anyone lucky enough to get into the first-ever Blerd & Boujee boat party (featuring DJ D-Nice ) at San Diego Comic-Con 2019 can attest, fans will not want to miss connections and conversations designed for the culture.

Calling All Fans!

You bet your sweet bippy I’m entering the Fandome!

I’m generally not a con-goer, but this sounds way, way better than the average con experience (dealer tables aside).

Is it likely outside vendors will be part of this too? That is to say, will companies that produce DC-based merchandise show off their upcoming wares (that would have been on display in their own booths had SDCC proceeded as planned) as part of Fandome?

Love this so much, especially since it’s the day before my birthday.

Why didn’t DC Universe get to hear about it first?
Hope they connect the event to DC Universe with content and promotions!

This event is intended for EVERYONE around the globe- DC Universe members are domestic/U.S., so we have a support role to play- but we aren’t the primary channel for it :slight_smile:

I’m so excited! Hopefully the next Batman game will be announced!

One thing that seems to be missing (at least from what I can tell from the initial info) is an opportunity to interact with creators from years past the way one might do at a con. Of course that might be a bit harder to manage since a lot of Silver and Bronze-Age creators worked for multiple companies. Still, it’s one of my favorite things. Any chance we’ll see some legendary creators from the olden days?

Is anyone else thinking of staying up for the whole 24 hour shebang, start to finish?

I’m leaning towards doing that, especially with an able-bodied assist from my friend Jolt Cola.

Me at the beginning: :clark_hv_4:

Me when it ends: :superman_hv_4: with a bit of :crazy_face: on the side.
