Nashville is about to get a little darker—but in the best way. Creation Entertainment’s Vampire Fan Weekend returns May 3–4, 2025, bringing with it a fang-filled celebration of the undead, the romantic, and the immortal.
The annual convention, hosted at the Sheraton Music City Hotel, is a haven for fans of vampire-themed entertainment. This year’s star-studded lineup includes Ian Somerhalder and Paul Wesley from The Vampire Diaries, Matthew Davis, Daniel Gillies, and Twilight’s Ashley Greene. Also appearing: Peter Facinelli, Kellan Lutz, Jackson Rathbone, and others from the franchises.

The weekend offers Q&A panels, autographs and photo ops, cosplay contests, karaoke parties, and special effects makeup classes. While official attendance numbers aren’t released, the convention draws a fiercely loyal crowd each year. Every guest gets a seat in the main auditorium, making for an intimate fan experience.
If you’re a fan of brooding looks, supernatural drama, or just want to sing karaoke with someone who’s played a vampire, this weekend might be your perfect bite.
