New York Comic Con (NYCC) starts tomorrow (Thursday) and there are quite a few Outlander-related events at the con. Here is what we have so far for all the fans going to NYCC:
- As previously reported on this site, there is an Outlander panel at 5:30 on Saturday, October 6th, and the panel will last until 7 PM. Ronald D. Moore, Maril Davis, Caitriona Balfe, Sam Heughan, Richard Rankin, and Sophie Skelton will be on the panel. As with previous con panels for Outlander, a video of the panel will probably be shared by Starz within a couple of days of the event. It will not include any exclusive footage (or the first episode) that is only meant for those attending. Live-streaming of the panel will not be an option for those not in attendance.
- There will be an Outlander booth at NYCC. It will be Fraser’s Ridge themed and it will be located at the Inner Roadway of the Javits Center. We do not know if there will be any merch giveaways at the booth.
- There will be an autograph signing at the booth at 2:30 PM on Saturday, which is before the panel. If this works like previous cons, you will need to head to the Outlander booth and see if you can win a ticket to the signing. I would suggest you head to the booth as soon as you get to NYCC to learn any of the details. Starz has said that if you get an autograph ticket, you will get VIP seating to the panel that day, so you will not have to worry about losing a seat for the panel to attend the autograph session.
Dinna fear! Those who win autograph signing tickets at the #Outlander booth will receive guaranteed VIP seating at the panel. More information will be provided by the booth’s brand ambassadors.

There is seating at the stage, but please check for the location when you get to NYCC. There will be a live-stream of this session for those not in attendance.
- Ronald D. Moore is doing a master class with Chris Parnell (Sony Television executive) on Friday, October 5th from 3:30 – 5 PM at The Studio at NYCC. Tickets are $50 and are still available.
