Spock Days/Galaxyfest
Spock Days/Galaxyfest
There are two structures in Vulcan that build upon the town's Star Trek connection: the replica of the famous starship U.S.S. Enterprise, which stands at the town's main entrance, and the Vulcan Tourism and Trek Station, which opened to the public in 1998 and is the base of operations for Spock Days/ Galaxyfest.
Initial there were two festivals: the VulCon, the original celebration, and the Spockdays Rodeo that was added later. In 2002 the events were combined to take place over one long weekend. Typically, events include a costume contest, a Klingon-inspired stunt-game competition, a Galaxy Awards Banquet, and appearances by cast members from Star Trek shows.
