As the Dream It Fest, scheduled in London on September 17, 2022, approaches, Dream It Conventions adds new names to its guestlist with the announcements of Kit Connor and Ben Barnes.

Heartstopper, His Dark Materials, Rocket’s Island…

Despite his young age, Kit Connor is a familiar face on the small screen.

In this adaptation of the graphic novel by Alice Oseman, he plays Nick, one of the main characters. Fans of the His Dark Materials series also know him as the voice of Pantalaimon, Lyra’s demon.

At the Dream It Fest event, Kit Connor will be attending his first convention and will be doing one or more panels, photoshoots (65€), autographs (41,50€), a meet and greet (150€) and personalized videos (77€). These activities, as well as tickets, are available for purchase on the official ticketing.

Shadow and Bone, Narnia, The Punisher…

Revealed by his role of Prince Caspian in the saga The Chronicles of Narnia, Ben Barnes is also regularly present in projects for the small screen. Sons of Liberty, WestWorld, The Punisher and Gold Digger are series in which he took part before joining Shadow and Bone, the adaptation of the Grishaverse signed by Netflix. In this series, which was a real phenomenon when it was launched on the platform, he plays General Kirigan, one of the main antagonists.

For the Dream It Fest event, Ben Barnes will join one of his cast mates from Shadow and Bone: Freddy Carter. They will do a duo photoshoot together (155€). The actor will also come to talk with his fans during one or more panels and a meeting (170€). He will also do photoshoots (95€) and sign autographs (50€). These different extras, and the passes for the event, are to be found without further delay on the ticketing.
