Mark Gustafson, CEO of Challenger, said, "Fan convention events have proven to be incredibly popular in the US thanks to the unique opportunity they provide attendees with to meet the stars of their favourite film or television show. We believe that Jane and her Star Sanctum team have the skill set and experience to make these events as popular in the UK and wider Europe, and in doing so create a highly lucrative business venture. Testament to this is the fantastic list of stars they have already secured for the maiden event to be held in London in May. We are delighted to be supporting this event, which could be the first of many exciting opportunities to come."

Jane Lowther, owner of Star Sanctum, states "Star Sanctum is a unique brand which represents the next stage in fan conventions. Our first event is designed to be more personal to give paying attendees better interaction and more quality time with the actors. We are delighted to have actors from Marvel, Lucifer and 12 Monkeys as part of our first event."
