We are conveniently located in the historic Valley Forge Area at the Valley Forge Convention Center in King of Prussia, PA. We are just minutes from the Philadelphia airport, and located in the near the heart of the Philadelphia suburbs of 6 Million people. OVER 60% of the United States Population is located within 2 hours of travel from the Philadelphia region. (source: Select Greater Philadelphia Chamber of Commerce). This allows a quick and convenient location for many travellers as well as a huge target market for your product or service. We hope to see you all there!

P.S. Curious as to what last year was like? Here are some videos of last years show, which was 1\5 the size of this years show! That's right, we're FIVE TIMES LARGER THIS YEAR!

Double P.S.
Be sure to book your room through our website - as (due to the insane rules of hotel logic that simply do *NOT* make sense to me) you wont be able to get your room discount if you call your reservation in.

The convention is held in April because:

1.) many of the attendees are either owners or actors in commercial haunted attractions, and they are simply too busy "during the season" to make a convention

AND (more importantly)

2.) many of the vendors offer customization to their product, and they need the time to create what you want. We have one vendor who makes corpses, you can walk up to him and say "I need a plump, slightly gray haired woman in her late 40's in her nightgown whose face, right arm, and right torso were all chewed off by a werewolf, and oh yea... add some claw marks to the left side" and he-can-make-it-to-your-requirements!!!

Custom products is one of the biggest draws to the convention. If you want to have the coolest Halloween party in the neighborhood, you don't want to have what everyone else has been buying at Wal-mart.
