‘Outlander’ Star Sam Heughan Sets New York Comic Con Appearances
Outlander‘s Sam Heughan is heading to New York City this October as the actor sets his New York Comic Con appearances.
Along with making Q&A appearances, Heughan will be doing small group Meet & Greets and Photo Ops for a limited number of fans. With a variety of different packages available, Outlander fans have plenty of opportunities to see their favorite TV Highlander at the event.
Heughan will be attending the show all day on Saturday, October 8, and part of Sunday, October 9. A limited number of packages for his Meet & Greets, Q&As, Photo Ops, and more go on sale beginning Wednesday, August 31 at 1 p.m. ET on the official New York Comic Con website. The landing page to purchase these packages can be found here.
While fans await Heughan’s return as Jamie Fraser and anticipate his return to traveling with Graham McTavish in Men in Kilts, this is the perfect way to catch up with the actor. Below, we’re breaking down the details for each of Heughan’s NYCC packages.

You’ll also receive front row seating at the Saturday Evening Q&A, priority seating at the Sunday Morning Tea With Two Highlanders & A Lord Q&A on the Empire Stage.
