Four original cast members – Elijah Wood, Sean Astin, Billy Boyd, and Dominic Monaghan to appear on stage and meet fans at MegaCon Orlando.
Twenty-five years ago, four grateful Hobbits left the Shire and changed the face of fantasy forever.
In 2026, Elijah Wood, Sean Astin, Billy Boyd, and Dominic Monaghan will reunite with fans for An Evening with the Hobbits: In Celebration of 25 Years, a once-in-a-quarter-century celebration that will be featured at 11 FAN EXPO HQ shows across North America, including MEGACON Orlando which takes place March 19 – 22, 2026.
More than a reunion and so much more than a panel, An Evening with the Hobbits is part variety show, part storytelling session, and all fun. No two nights will be the same — fans can expect a lively mix of behind-the-scenes memories, on-stage antics, heartfelt reflections, and plenty of laughs along the way. From inside jokes and surprise moments to the friendships that still shine 25 years later, this one-of-a-kind event promises a celebration as unexpected — and joyful — as a Hobbit feast.
"FAN EXPO is all about creating unforgettable experiences, and An Evening with the Hobbits will be exactly that," said Andrew Moyes, Vice President, FAN EXPO HQ. "Fans are delighted whenever we host these gentlemen individually — but together, the energy is electric. Their characters are beloved, their friendship is indelible, and the joy they bring to audiences is unmatched. We can't wait to present this special anniversary celebration in 2026."
At a recent FAN EXPO appearance, Elijah Wood offered these thoughts on the anniversary: "To be celebrating this milestone – a quarter of a century – just feels abstract. It still feels like the films are really present. The fact that we're spending this kind of time (at conventions with fans and doing shows like this), it keeps it so fresh for us. It's such a massive, continual part of our lives."
Tickets for An Evening with the Hobbits: In Celebration of 25 Years will be on sale October 22 at 10 am, along with VIP experiences that include once-in-a-lifetime photo op and autograph sessions.
Exclusive merch and collectibles will also be available — details coming soon.
Fans are encouraged to secure their spot early — these evenings are expected to sell out faster than pints at The Green Dragon.
