The Walking Dead: Updated List of Cast Appearances

*Updated 5/5 with new events and guests* There are dozens of horror and comic events every year, and that gives fans plenty of opportunities to meet Robert Kirkman or one of the many cast members from The Walking Dead. Although it’s a bit early for some of the bigger conventions to announce their full guest list, we put together an initial list of stops so you can start making your travel plans.

New to the The Walking Dead convention circuit in 2013 are Vincent M. Ward (Oscar) and Lew Temple (Axel), along with some of the other new cast members we saw in Season 3. If you’re looking to catch most of The Walking Dead cast together at once, your best chance will be at the San Diego Comic-Con in July and the New York Comic Con in October. Those looking to meet Norman Reedus will have plenty of opportunities, as he is the one who usually attends the most conventions each year.

We’ll keep this list updated over the coming months and please leave a comment or email us if there’s an item you’d like us to add. Remember that all conventions are subject to guest cancellation, so keep in mind that a shooting schedule change could force a guest to leave at the last moment, even though they are officially announced as attending. Always check the official convention/event website for the most up-to-date information.

*We want to give a special thanks to Daily Dead reader Elizabeth Mathewson for helping us update this list.

    Do any of these events have the ability to order autographs from guests if you cannot attend? Thanks!

    • DailyDead

      As far as I’m aware, none of them offer such a service. However, you may want to contact the conventions directly to find out about their individual autograph policies.

    • Netty Johnson

      The Sci Fi Expo in Dallas offers this service. It is this weekend Feb.9-10. Good luck.

    For the event at Somerset, KY, who are the other 3 besides Sonya Thompson; Savana Jade, Michael Koske, Larry Mainland? Were they Walkers or Extras?

    • DailyDead

      I didn’t see three others. Many of their guests are from a variety of horror movies. Could you let me know the names that you had questions about?

      they are all walkers..as am i but i will not be at that event

  • http://www.facebook.com/Hollywood6Angel Miranda Kathrein

    Which ones do you think Andrew Lincoln will be at? Just San Diego and New York? For fans than have gone to the San Diego one before, are you able to meet the entire cast (meaning get an autograph and a picture with them)? Is there a set limit of who can meet them and then the line cuts off? Or can you buy a VIP package or something to ensure you get to meet all of them? Do they have pictures available to sign, or do you have to bring your own photos for them to sign? Any info would be much appreciated. Thanks . :)

    • DailyDead

      There’s always a chance that he’ll appear at other events, but he has been at SDCC and NYCC in the past and doesn’t make many appearances. Both conventions have different autograph policies and they may change from year to year. As it gets a bit closer to each event, keep an eye out for their updated autograph policies. There is usually a set limit because of demand.

      • http://www.facebook.com/Hollywood6Angel Miranda Kathrein

        Thank you for responding to my message. :)

    • http://twitter.com/Ebradley127 Erin M. Bradley

      Last two years SDCC & NYCC gave out only 50 tickets to con-goers to meet the cast of TWD and get autographs. I heard SDCC was done by some type of lottery. NYCC it was first come, first serve, so unless you wanted to wait on a line outside the venue in NYC in October (not exactly warm weather) you’re not getting in to meet them at that venue. Last year, that line started at about 7pm and by 4am there were literally hundreds of people camped out on line. I also have heard that the people that do get in to meet them at those venues get rushed through and have less than a minute with each of them. It’s shitty.

      • http://www.facebook.com/Hollywood6Angel Miranda Kathrein

        Thanks so much for the info. At least I know not to waste my time and money at those bigger events. You saved me a trip. It sounds next to impossible to meet Andrew Lincoln. He’s really the only one I want to meet too. Norman Reedus, Jon Bernthal, Michael Rooker, Sarah Wayne Calles, Laurie Holden, Chandler Riggs, and Chad Coleman will all come to Chicago this year. So at least I can meet them. :) . I will probably have to be in the right place at the right time to meet Mr Lincoln. This show has such a huge fan base. I can see how every event for them would be chaotic. Probably as chaotic as SoxFest the year after the White Sox won the World Series. :-o . Now that was a living nightmare to be at. Yikes!

    Please keep me posted on what to expect for this years San Diego Comic Con 2013! I’d love to meet Robert Kirkman and cast of Walking dead! Gotta get my first compendium signed ;) would be a dream come true!!! Miheid87@yahoo.com

    • http://twitter.com/Ebradley127 Erin M. Bradley

      I don’t know how SDCC is run, but I was at NYCC last year, and while they had special limited tickets for both meeting/autographs with The Walking Dead and for just getting Kirkman’s autograph at the Image comics booth, both of which were gone as soon as the doors opened in the morning, I was able to meet Kirkman and get his autograph at another Skybound/Image Comics panel that he did on another day during NYCC. It was actually nice because it was such a small thing and not directly related or advertised as TWD related, so there weren’t a lot of people there. Point being, check the SDCC program guide carefully when it comes out!

  • maria_reedus

    What makes San Diego better than New York?

    • DailyDead

      SDCC is a bigger event than NYCC, but better depends on what guests you want to see and how much access you want to them. Tickets for SDCC are sold out, but they may have a second small offering before the show. If you want more one on one time with a specific cast member from The Walking Dead, I’d suggest attending one of the horror conventions.
