The weekend of March 10-11 brought soap fans closer than ever to their favorite stars at the second annual GENERAL HOSPITAL Convention! Over the course of the two-day event, viewers were treated to special Q&A sessions with actors like Maurice Benard (Sonny), Laura Wright (Carly), Steve Burton (Jason), Kelly Monaco (Sam), and Billy Miller (Drew). There were also opportunities to get photos and autographs with them, and even some musical performances, too! Check out this snippet of Wally Kurth (Ned) singing Bob Seger’s “Night Moves!”

There were also auctions where fans could bid on amazing prizes like studio tours or even a walk-on role on GH. The weekend was a massive success with viewers being able to get up-close and personal with daytime vets like Kin Shriner (Scotty) and Jacklyn Zeman (Bobbie) as well as newcomers like Eden McCoy (Josslyn) and Chloe Lanier (Nelle).

Fans took plenty of photos of the stars all weekend, but scroll down to see some of the snaps the actors took themselves as well as their heartfelt messages of thanks to everyone who came out to celebrate GH!
