The Official Farscape Convention

From 2000 to 2011, Creation Entertainment ran an annual Farscape convention, called The Official Farscape Convention. The conventions featured appearances and panels by the cast and crew, costume contests, exclusive merchandise, meet-and-greets, photo-ops, and more. 
The first convention was held from August 5-6, 2000 at the Burbank Airport Hilton Hotel in California, with each subsequent convention also held in California. The final convention was held from November 18-20, 2011.
Series stars such as Ben Browder, Claudia Black, Gigi Edgley, Anthony Simcoe, Wayne Pygram, and Kent McCord were frequent guests. They gave seminars, had meet-and-greets with fans, and held Q&As. Writers such as Rockne S. O'Bannon, David Kemper, Andrew Prowse, and Richard Manning also made appearances at the conventions, having discussions with other cast and crew about the making of Farscape.
Some conventions also held auctions. For example, the 2001 convention auctioned off a Charrid knife from the "Infinite Possibilites" episodes and a prop pulse pistol.Burbank 2001: Day 2 - Snurcher's Guide
