    Hello Everyone!
    Wexworlds was a festival in Wexford town from 2009 - 2011 but had to be put on a short hiatus . We are planning a resurgence though however for 2015! If you're passionate about sci-fi, fantasy, comic books and/or anything nerdy we need you! We need committee members and general volunteers for the actual festival.

    We are in the very early stages of organising the event but there will be two types of volunteer work that people can get involved in. One would being on the organising committee essentially organising the festival and getting the whole thing up and running. This would require a good deal more committment between now and the actual festival. The other type of volunteering you could do would be to volunteer during the actual event, the responsibilities for those volunteers would be organised closer to the actual festival. The preliminary dates for the festival is the 20th - 22nd Feburary 2015.

    We have some positions to fill on our committee that I have listed below. If you are interested in any of these let me know!
    · Vice - Chairperson

    · Treasurer

    · Secretary

    · PR Officer(s)

    · Other non-positioned officers

    We plan to hold a committee meeting once enough support has been drummed up in town to fill these spaces, so if you're interested get onto us as soon as possible! Please note that all positions are voluntary.


    If you are at all interested please shoot us an email at:
    info[at]wexworlds.net

    Or check us out on Facebook by searching for Wexworlds Festival!

    All the best,
    Wexworlds Organizing Committee

    It's not happening this year then?

    Maybe you guys overreached for the first few years and need to dial it back a bit? Better to have a small festival than none at all, right?

    Also, flyers would be a cheap way to get word around and generate interest. Get people interested and charge for shop space, where folks can sell their comics/models, etc.

    I don't think it should be scaled back. But I do think you need to figure who this is actually for. A lot of the events last few years have primarily aimed at children. And thats ok, however a lot more events aimed at adults will also be appreciated.
