FanX Salt Lake (formerly Salt Lake Comic Con) is a semi-annual multi-genre pop culture expo held in Salt Lake City, Utah, United States. It is produced by Dan Farr and Bryan Brandenburg[1] under Dan Farr Productions and is Utah's most attended convention according to the Governor's Office of Economic Development.[2][3][4][5] The first convention took place at the Salt Palace Convention Center in Salt Lake City.[6] The second event, Salt Lake Comic Con FanXperience, was inaugurated in April 2014.[7][8]

History

The first Salt Lake Comic Con was held September 5–7, 2013 and included special guests including Adam West, William Shatner,[9] and Stan Lee with attendance over 70,000.[10][11] People attended with ticket sales that exceeded 50,000.[12][13][11][3][14] Salt Lake Comic Con FanXperience, the first of two Salt Lake comic conventions in 2014, took place on April 17–19, 2014.[15] FanXperience was attended by over 100,000 people.[16]

On July 25, 2014 San Diego Comic-Con International sent Dan Farr Productions a cease and desist letter over the use of the word "Comic Con."[17] Convention organizers responded with a press release citing their legal position and unwillingness to comply to the cease and desist letter.[18] In December 2017, a San Diego jury found San Diego Comic-Con does hold a trademark on the term "Comic Con," but also found Salt Lake organizers Dan Farr and Bryan Brandenburg did not willfully or intentionally violate it. They awarded SDCC $20,000 in damages, less than the $12 million the non-profit wanted. Subsequently, Farr and Brandenburg re-branded the convention under the name FanX.[19] On January 16, 2018, Farr and Brandenburg filed a motion for a new trial.[20]

In March 2016, Dan Farr Productions partnered with POP Life to expand FanXperience to Asia.[21] Bryan Brandenburg stepped aside in May 2018 in response to criticism of how he handled a sexual harassment complaint.[22][23][24] In 2019, Brandenburg devoted himself full-time to Zenerchi, a biotech company he founded in Salt Lake City.[25][26][27]
