Investigation Discovery viewers coined the term 'ID Addicts' to describe our greatest and most passionate fans - those, who truly love ID's signature storytelling, to death," said Henry Schleiff, Group President, Investigation Discovery,
AMERICAN HEROES CHANNEL and Destination America. "ID Addicts have only multiplied over the years and, in fact, they've made us the #1 network for women, so the time is ripe to finally give them what they'd kill for - an exclusive, full-day date with the talent and brand they just can't ever get enough of."
At IDCON, ID Addicts will hear firsthand from the network's top personalities - including ON THE CASE's Paula Zahn,
HOMICIDE HUNTER Joe Kenda, HATE IN AMERICA's Tony Harris, KILLER INSTINCT's Chris Hansen, MIND OF A MURDERER's Michelle Ward and DEADLY WOMEN's Candice DeLong. With several new talent-led series rolling out this spring and summer, the network will also introduce, for the first time, new faces joining the network.

Fans will also have the opportunity to view exclusive clips from new and upcoming programs - and, even better, chances to win walk-on roles in upcoming new ID series - as well as engage in Q&A and a meet-and-greet and autograph session with ID talent. Additional activities allowing fans to engage with ID on a deeper level at IDCON will include a virtual reality experience, a mock forensic lab, and a podcast station where ID Addicts can dish about their very favorite subject.
