MEGGAXP 2026

Michigan’s Entertainment, Gaming, Geek and Arts Experience is BACK for MeggaXP 2026!!! After a 6 year hiatus, we brought MeggaXP back in 2025 for our 10 year anniversary, and we are running it back again for 2026!!!

What is MeggaXP?
MeggaXP is a celebration of all things entertainment, gaming, geek and arts! It’s like a “comic-con” of sorts, except we offer WAY more to do than most cons. We are a completely different EXPERIENCE – hence the name.

What can I do at MeggaXP?
You can do all kinds of things. For starters, there is a vendor room with over 50 vendors setup selling you anything and everything from the world of pop culture. Original art, books, collectibles, toys, models, jewelry, movies, posters, you name it – if it’s pop culture related, it’s there! On top of that, we have huge gaming rooms filled with tons of free to play video games, board games, card games, and more! We also have a cosplay contest at 3pm, and tons of live action game shows going throughout the day! Our event schedule will be posted as time goes on, but know that in the past we have done things like Name That Tune, Geekly Feud, Jeopardy, Star Wars Trivia, Surviving the Line, A Room Divided, and tons more! The best part? ALL of the experiences during the regular show hours are included for ONE PRICE!

How much does it cost to attend MeggaXP?
This event is designed to be affordable for everyone! Adult tickets are $15, high school students are $10, and middle school and younger kids are $5. Military past and present get in free as well! There are also VIP tickets available (extremely limited) that gives you a ton of features and swag, pricing to be announced soon for those!

Where can I get tickets?
Tickets will go on sale on Thursday, April 16th, at 8:00 AM!

Fairy Festival 2026

We welcome you to a very special day filled with imagination, adventure, and wonder at the 19th Annual Fairy Festival, a one-of-a-kind spring celebration designed especially for young children and the grown-ups who love them!

Families from near and far are invited to step into a whimsical world where fairies roam, pirates sail, mermaids sparkle, and creativity leads the way. Children are encouraged to dress up, explore, and play, while adults often find themselves rediscovering a bit of childhood magic along the way.

MeggaXP’s “Open Door” Horror Show! Supporting Displaced Vendors

MeggaXP is taking ACTION in response to the situation that happened on the east side of the state in late January / early February. We are hosting our “OPEN DOOR” horror show to the vendors who were displaced, shut-out, or left-out in the cold (literally) at that event, and are offering those vendors FREE spaces at this one-of-a-kind celebration of horror.
This is NOT Blood Bash 2.0. There is no film festival, there is not a gaming room. This is designed STRICTLY for the vendors of all things horror and gore – especially those who were denied booths that were PAID FOR at a different event.
How Many Vendors Will Be There?
Well, there are 72 spaces, we know that. Some vendors may take up 1,2, or 3 spaces, but there are 72 spaces – no more, no less.

Jackson Toy Show Feb 2026

The Jackson show started in 2004 and has grown from 18 tables to over 240 tables of toy collectibles. It’s a one day show where you’ll find everything from NASCAR, Tractors, Dolls, Promos, Hot Wheels, Slot Cars, Model Cars, Star Wars, Action Figures, Movie Posters, Comics, Sport Cards, Matchbox, Trains, Die Cast Trucks, Cartoon Characters, Battery Operated & Wind-Ups, Antique Toys and more!

Blood Bash 2026

Jackson’s ONLY Horror Film Festival and Convention is BACK for 2026!
MeggaXP is bringing back BLOOD BASH for it’s 9th annual celebration of all things horror and gore! If you’ve never been to Blood Bash, you’re in for a real treat! Here’s everything that’s happening this year:

Friday Night will be a Film Festival BONUS NIGHT where you can watch the semi-finalist movies play (along with a couple of exclusive trivia events), and Saturday you will see the top 20 movies compete for “Best In Show,” “Favorite Male” and “Favorite Female” performances.

VENDOR ROOM – Our vendor room is FILLED with over 60 tables of dealers selling things like art, collectibles, posters, movies, books, and more! Plus this year we will once again have our ATRIUM OF AGONY area that will once again be filled with even MORE vendors for you to shop!

COSPLAY CONTEST – Like to dress up? We are going to be having our annual cosplay contest where men and women both compete for the best cosplay! Anything from clowns to vampires to zombies and more are eligibile, and you never know what’s going to walk through those cosplay room doors!

SCREAM QUEEN CONTEST – Think you have the loudest lungs of them all? Prove it in our annual Scream Queen contest! This is many people’s favorite event of the weekend, and it’s sure to be a scream!

GAME ROOM – We have an entire ballroom filled with games to play, that are all horror themed. From horror themed video games and tabletop games to unique, one of a kind carnival game experiences. Play games, win tickets toward our GRAND PRIZE RAFFLES at the end of the day!

TRIVIA CONTESTS AND LIVE ACTION GAME SHOWS – Only at Blood Bash can you participate in some of the most unique trivia contests and live action game shows! This year we are cooking up all new editions of some of your favorite games from the past as well as bringing in some new games to play for the very first time.

HALL OF HORRORS EXHIBIT – Take a walk down memory lane, visiting every “Best In Show”, “Favorite Male” and “Favorite Female” winning movie from every year at Blood Bash in our HALL OF HORRORS. Literally a long hallway filled with TVs showing all of the movies from year past!
