The “That’s E Micro Con” began in 2018 with only a few guest creators and vendors. Due to the success of the convention and popular demand, the store has decided to bring it back; and now with the additional space in their brand-new event room, That’s Entertainment is making it bigger and better than before.

Guest Experience Manager Sorana Gatej says, “I’ve always felt like our store is a pop-culture con that is open 363 days of the year. I created the “That’s E MicroCon” with the intention to simulate a ‘convention experience.’ I want to give customers the opportunity to connect with local creators in a more intimate and social setting.”

That’s Entertainment, located at 244 Park Ave, Worcester, MA is a pop culture emporium that specializes in everyone’s inner “geek.” They carry a wide variety of comics, vinyl records, vintage and modern video games and systems, anime, collectible card games, board games, sports cards, memorabilia, toys, posters, and other items.
