Set your calendar! Creation Entertainment will be presenting A Salute to Xena’s 25th Anniversary on August 28-30, 2020 at the Hyatt Regency Los Angeles Airport giving fans from around the globe the opportunity for a once-in-a-lifetime celebration of the series and its stars that made it what it is!

It’s hard to believe it will be 25 years since Xena: Warrior Princess first aired in 1995! As a spin-off from the popular series Hercules, Xena was praised for having strong female protagonists, including Xena and her comrade-in-arms Gabrielle who took up their chakram and staff to help those in need.

Played to perfection by Lucy Lawless and Renee O’Connor, respectively, the epic journeys of Xena and Gabrielle have stood the test of time, became part of pop culture history, and, more important, our social culture, placing strong women heroes as stars of major television shows and films. The show gained a loyal and adoring fan base whose support for the series continues to this day.

Over the past two decades, Creation Entertainment has had the honor of presenting many wonderful Xena fan conventions. The Salute to Xena’s 25th Anniversary convention in 2020 will provide attendees with three days filled with wonderful celebrities, special events, and fond looks back at what made the fandom and the conventions such memorable events. Confirmed talent includes fan favorites: Michael Hurst ("Iolaus"), Jennifer Ward-Lealand ("Zehra/Boadicea"), Brittney Powell ("Brunhilda") and more to come!

If you were a Gold patron at the 2015 Xena Convention in Burbank, you are eligible to purchase a Gold Weekend ticket, prior to them going on sale to the general public. If you’re interested, please contact us at leticia.serafin@creationent.com and on the subject line type "XENA 2020" (as we will have a list of the people who purchased the 2015 tickets).
