Information & Demographics
We expect over 650 badged guests per day at WWWC13 “Steampunk Halloween!” and many more visitors to our Vendor Hall as we encourage the public to attend! Our event record is over 2500 guests in one day and since Covid, we’re working to get back to that!
We focus on a diverse group of patrons: We welcome all guests to our convention. Our core audience is 21 to 60 with the majority in the 18-44 and 45-64 brackets. We tend towards a financially secure customer base with disposable income and an interest in art, science, history, and technology.
Purchasing Habits: we find that the majority of our customers appreciate finely made and hand-crafted quality products made by professional artisans, and services that fill unique needs, and niche market categories.
Geographically: our patrons are usually located in the Southwest. Our largest draw is from Tucson and Phoenix, with guests from all over the world including Germany and New Zealand.
Our Vendor Hall: features 87 booths including the finest clothing, gear, devices, curiosities, tea, wine, tattoos, and much more!
The Vendor Hall is open to all Convention Attendees, Staff, and we also free to visit for the general public – including casino patrons!
While this is unusual for conventions, (even specifically for events at Casino Del Sol), we take the success of our vendors and sponsors seriously and want to get the most possible foot traffic and brand exposure! This has always been our policy at WWWC, regardless of our location.
Genre Focus: WWWC is primarly focused on the Steampunk Genre but we heavily associate with Science Fiction, Fantasy, RPG’s, Maker Groups, Costumers, Bookworms, Creative and Imaginative people, Tattoos and Piercing, Goth, and many other “nerdy” groups.
