Star-Studded Syfy-EW Comic-Con Party

New York, New York - July 14, 2010 - Whether on stage, online, via mobile, walking the streets, the red carpet or biting into a juicy burger, Syfy will celebrate its 10th anniversary as a landmark sponsor of Comic-Con International in San Diego (July 21-25) through a diverse multi-media campaign that will interact with tens of thousands of fans inside and outside the Convention Center, it was announced today by Blake Callaway, Senior Vice President, Brand and Strategic Marketing, Syfy.

Syfy's 2010 Comic-Con plans will feature five panels showcasing stars and creative talent from its popular series Warehouse 13, Eureka, Caprica, Stargate Universe and Sanctuary; a special screening of the Syfy Saturday Original Movie Mega Piranha, hosted by 1980s pop music idol Tiffany, who co-stars along with Debbie Gibson in the upcoming Mega Python Vs Gatoroid - and will introduce an exclusive clip from the film, and extensive Digital and Mobile offerings from the launch of Syfy.com/Comiccon to iPhone apps.

On the ground marketing initiatives will include Syfy Brand Ambassadors blanketing San Diego's downtown Gaslamp District distributing more than 25,000 coveted premiums. At the core of activity will be the return of Comic Con 2009's most talked about marketing initiative, Caf� Diem. Based on the fictitious restaurant in Eureka (with menu items ranging from Lou Diamond Flapjacks, Cylon Caesar Salad and Syfy Myty to Greaterade, a word play on the marketing tagline Imagine Greater), Caf� Diem last year reached more than 150K customers.

For the fourth consecutive year, Syfy will be holding its annual star-studded party with Entertainment Weekly. Syfy will also be partnering with Xbox 360 and Zune, kicking off their first ever Comic-Con advertising partnership.

Said Callaway: "This is Syfy's 10th year at Comic-Con, which has become a marquee event for fans and the media. Our first trip to San Diego was just a few marketing employees. Now we mobilize a small army of stars, show creators and staff so those attending the convention can fully experience the imagination of the Syfy brand. In particular, we're very excited for the return of our branded restaurant Cafe Diem, inspired by our hit show Eureka, one of many creative initiatives we'll be providing during the five days of Comic-Con."
