Hey gang! Kori-Maru here to announce the next Sonic & SEGA Fan Jam 2015, a fan gathering con event hosted by SEGAbits & held in Savannah, Ga celebrating upcoming and retro SEGA titles including convention activities, tournaments, special guests, and more. Last year, I had a blast hosting an event like this for people who have passion for the company and all of it's products.
We've been working on the website for the event for quite sometime and plan to give you guys more announcements in the coming months. However, in order to make this event bigger than before, we've made a donation page with a goal of reaching $7,000 or more to cover the expenses on venue space, travel accommodations for special guests, food, and providing all of your favorite SEGA titles towards the event.
Donors can also contribute by donating any SEGA consoles for the event. Feel free to contact us or myself to set up a chat.

Feel free to leave suggestions as well! Oh and by the way, I'm planning something for Shenmue's 15 Anniversary in the states. So be on the look out for that during Fan Jam!

What can we expect ticket prices to be? I am totally down for driving down to Savannah, but I have no idea what the tickets were like last year.

Maybe between $20-$50, though the numbers may change. I'll have full details on them later this summer. Hopefully by April, I will update the fundraising page with rewards.

Will ticket prices include autographs?

If you mean buying a ticket with autograph privileges. Not sure on that yet but may be considered.

Bumping the topic a bit.
Date and pricing will be announced shortly. It will be the cheapest price that may bring all SEGA fans to the event. ;)
