The Premier Dr. Who Convention
February 14 – 16, 2020
A fully non-profit event founded in 1989 by active fans in local Los Angeles science fiction fandom. This is the 31st Annual Gallifrey One Convention, and has become one of the world’s most popular fan-run themed events devoted to the Doctor Who classic and new television series, and its spinoffs.
While very much a modern celebrity-driven convention, it still boasts a classic-style art show, a supervised children’s program room, hallway fan tables available for free to clubs and 
conventions, and specialized costuming events, as well as a dealers room and special themed events (such as the Thursday night launch party!) Plus, this event goes well into the evening on Friday and Saturday nights with extensive evening programming, dances and karaoke (sometimes going until the very early hours of the morning!), and a fully judged Saturday night costume competition and fashion show (the Masquerade of Mandragora).
FAT TUESDAY – February 25, 2020
Be sure to check out our elaborate rental costumes and pick up some festive beads, masks, hats and decorations. Anything goes for Mardi Gras attire.
Mardi Gras means “Fat Tuesday” and, of course, is traditionally celebrated on that day of the week. There are parties and parades for weeks before Fat Tuesday. Officially, Mardi Gras starts on the 6th of January, and runs until Fat Tuesday. In New Orleans, the majority of Mardi Gras celebrations are held in the two weeks leading up to Fat Tuesday itself.
PURIM – March 9-10, 2020
Costumes and accessories for the Purim holiday are here at Etoile Costume & Party Center. Be sure to check your local temple for the date of the Purim festival near you.
Purim is the most festive of Jewish holidays, a time of festivals, prizes, noisemakers, costumes, and treats. The Festival of Purim commemorates a major victory over oppression and is recounted in the Megillah, the scroll of the story of Esther.
TUESDAY, March 17, 2020
We have balloons, costumes, hats, ties, pins, beads and more for your party, or just because on St. Patrick’s Day everyone is Irish!
One reason St. Patrick’s Day might have become so popular is that it traditionally takes place just a few days before the first day of spring. One might say it has become the first green of spring.
Need more reasons to dress up and party? Check out these special events coming up soon.
