The world’s biggest and only
Fast and the Furious conference

#1 EVENT TO GET READY FOR FURIOUS 7

So much Fastness and Furiousness

Seven days is barely enough to contain all the awesomenesss.

WHAT IS FASTCON?

FastCon* is a celebration of the Fast and the Furious series where hosts Greg and Selena watch the first six films, one a night, in their living room, leading up to the opening of Furious 7. There are also a series of panels and discussions, but mostly amongst themselves.


*FastCon is not affiliated in any way with the Fast and the Furious franchise, nor is it a real conference.

What people are saying

It’s really hard to commit to watching a movie a night, I mean we have jobs and kids and some of these aren’t even good movies.

SESSIONS AND PANELS

Fast Sessions and Furious Panels

There’s more to FastCon than just watching movies. Engage with these hosts in the many events and panels listed below.

Session leaders

Selena Robleto

Selena’s love of the series started snowballing ever since her then-boyfriend, now husband Greg and his best friend Duke quoted Dominic Toretto to each other in 2001. Today, thanks to those two, she is one of the world's leading experts on the Fast and the Furious movies. 

Greg Robleto

Admittedly, Greg didn’t go all in into the series until Fast Five happened. Since then, Vin Diesel has been Greg’s spirit animal. He has considered changing all of his passwords to include the numerical order preference of the Fast and the Furious movies. Of course, that could all change on April 3rd, after the 7th movie comes out.

SESSIONS AND PANELS

What people are saying

The core premise that they are great street racers is flawed. They don’t seem to be particularly skilled at all. They just hit the NOS button every time they need to win a race.

 reserve your seat

Seating is Extremely Limited!

Since the Session Leaders, Greg and Selena, will be attending each event, that only leaves seating for two comfortably and up to five if we squish, so reserve your seat early so you do not get left out. Badges are going fast... and furiously!

Reserve a seat!

Send a note to the organizers to let them know that you are interested in going to FastCon!

What people are saying

It’s key that you just not think to hard. Watching 6 or 7 of these in a row will break you of that impulse. Then you really start enjoying these movies.
