Epic Announcement: Experience Marc Gunn at LUG CON 2026!
Are you ready to raise a glass, sing at the top of your lungs, and fly your geek flag high? We are beyond thrilled to reveal our very first major entertainment announcement for this year’s convention. Get your tankards ready, because you will be able to see Marc Gunn at LUG CON 2026!
That’s right, “The Celtfather” himself is making his way to our convention for an exclusive performance. If you are a fan of Celtic music, science fiction, fantasy, and good old-fashioned pub sing-alongs, you will not want to miss Marc Gunn at LUG CON 2026.
Who is Marc Gunn, The Celtfather?
For those who haven’t yet experienced the magic of his legendary live shows, Marc Gunn is a brilliant Celtic folk musician who was raised on a healthy diet of science fiction and fantasy. Instead of sticking strictly to traditional tunes, he forged his own path by celebrating his unique geeky interests. The result? A phenomenally fun genre he lovingly calls “Sci F’Irish.”
Marc’s music fuses the lively, foot-stomping energy of traditional Irish and Scottish drinking songs with lyrics heavily inspired by pop culture fandoms. Whether you’re a hardcore sci-fi geek, a lover of cats, or just someone who enjoys a great pint and a hearty song, his music is all about kindness, celebrating our differences, and having a fantastic time together.
What to Expect from Marc Gunn at LUG CON 2026
When you come to see Marc Gunn at LUG CON 2026, you aren’t just attending a concert; you are joining a fellowship. Recorded music is wonderful, but Marc’s live pub performances are where his musical magic truly comes alive.
Expect to find yourself laughing, smiling, and singing along to songs written for working-class folks, educated by the past, and filled with hopes for a brighter (and geekier) tomorrow. Grab a seat in the pub, order your favorite drink, and get ready for an incredibly interactive show where Celtic traditions meet sci-fi and fantasy pop culture.
