Whammocon, the highly anticipated music, film, and arts festival from Spaceball Entertainment, is set to make its triumphant return to Athens, Georgia from June 30 to July 2, 2023. Hosting the event at the Flicker Theatre and the world famous Grill will be the full return of the team from Spaceball. Featuring luminaries from the last 25 years of Athens tradition, this three-day extravaganza promises to captivate attendees with an unforgettable experience featuring an unparalleled lineup of talent from the world of music, film, and the arts.

Spaceball Entertainment has returned to the vibrant Athens community, known for its rich history of fostering creativity and innovation. This year, the festival aims to surpass all expectations, offering an incredible fusion of diverse musical genres, cutting-edge films, captivating visual arts, and much more. Whether you're a music lover, film enthusiast, or art connoisseur, Whammocon has something in store for everyone.

Attendees can look forward to an incredible lineup of renowned musicians representing a variety of genres. From the soulful tunes of blues and jazz from Andy Farmer to the electrifying beats of hardcore from Dead Ewok, Whammocon will showcase a diverse range of talent on multiple stages throughout the weekend. Expected artists also include the return of sad sack goth unit The Power Star, a debut performance from proto industrial group Smaxxon, and the always infectious grooves of Orgasmically Programmed. Experience the infectious energy of live performances, discover emerging artists, and revel in the shared passion for music that brings people together.

Whammocon was founded by the visionary entrepreneur and arts enthusiast, Reginald Spaceball. Known for his boundless creativity and audacious dreams, Spaceball has been at the forefront of pushing the boundaries of entertainment experiences. With Whammocon, his ultimate goal is to take the festival beyond Earth's confines and venture into the realms of outer space, creating a cosmic celebration like no other.

The festival's assistant and right-hand person, Hans Entertainment, has played a crucial role in shaping Whammocon into the extraordinary event it has become. Alongside his responsibilities as Reginald Spaceball's trusted aide, Hans Entertainment is also a rising star in his own right. Audiences can look forward to his performance in "The Big City," the highly anticipated film produced by Spaceball Entertainment, scheduled for release in the near future. With his undeniable talent and captivating presence, Hans Entertainment embodies the spirit of Whammocon and serves as an inspiration to aspiring artists.

Film enthusiasts will have the opportunity to indulge in a carefully curated selection of independent films, spanning various genres and styles. The fest will include the premiere of Dope Cops HD, from the Spaceball Entertainment team. The festival's film program will feature the debut of a new trailer for The Big City, the compelling story of the rise and fall of the great Andy Warhol Farmer. Immerse yourself in the world of storytelling through the powerful medium of cinema, and engage in discussions with filmmakers and industry professionals.

Art lovers will find inspiration at every turn, with interactive installations, captivating exhibitions, and live art demonstrations. Whammocon will feature a display covering the history of Spaceball, as well as new works from artists Gary Autry and Adam Void. Engage with artists, explore their creations, and allow yourself to be transported into their imaginative worlds.

Beyond the captivating performances, screenings, and artworks, Whammocon offers a compelling and inclusive atmosphere, with an array of corporate updates and engaging workshops or panels for attendees to participate in. This immersive experience extends into the Sunday event, as attendees are encouraged to enjoy in person grooves from G Bronco and JXP Inc. There will also be political panel discussions with FARRAH and the TAXT team, and live music from Red Dogs. The panels will be broadcast live on 96.7 fm across the beautiful city of Athens, renowned for its cultural heritage, historic landmarks, and thriving arts scene.

Whammocon is not just a festival; it's a celebration of the power of music, film, and the arts to bring people together, inspire creativity, and ignite a sense of community. Join us in Athens, GA from June 30 to July 2, 2023, and be part of an unforgettable experience that will leave an indelible mark on your heart and soul.
