Another attempt at a new world record for most people in Star Trek<\/em> costumes in one place will take place this summer at the Official Star Trek Convention<\/em> in Las Vegas.<\/p>\n Returning to Las Vegas for its eleventh year, the Official Star Trek Convention<\/em> will be held August 9-12.<\/p>\n Over seventy Star Trek<\/em> celebrities will be in attendance, including four of the five Star Trek<\/em> captains, including: William Shatner, Avery Brooks, Kate Mulgrew<\/strong> and Scott Bakul<\/strong>a.<\/p>\n At last year’s convention, over a thousand fans broke the Guinness Book of World Records<\/em> record for most people in Star Trek<\/em> costumes in one place. This year, the record will be challenged again, in response to word that other conventions are going for the record.<\/p>\n “Coming in costume really adds to the fun and we want the world’s record that was made in Vegas to stay in Vegas,” said Erin Ferries<\/strong>, VP of Creation Entertainment, producers of the Official Star Trek Convention<\/em>. “Cosplay is a big part of fan convention going; last year we had many attendees coming in different costumes each day.”<\/p>\n The attempt to set a new record will take place Saturday, August 11. All ticketed attendees in full costume may participate.<\/p>\n For more information, head to the link located here<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Another attempt at a new world record for most people in Star Trek costumes in…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2416],"tags":[3576,4417],"class_list":["post-17794","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-fandom","tag-convention","tag-guinness-book-of-world-record"],"featured_image_urls":{"full":"","thumbnail":"","medium":"","medium_large":"","large":"","1536x1536":"","2048x2048":"","newsphere-slider-full":"","newsphere-featured":"","newsphere-medium":""},"author_info":{"display_name":"T'Bonz","author_link":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/author\/tbonz\/"},"category_info":"Fandom<\/a>","tag_info":"Fandom","comment_count":"0","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17794","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=17794"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17794\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":17800,"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17794\/revisions\/17800"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=17794"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=17794"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=17794"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
