Outlander ended after eight seasons on Starz in May 2026.
Fans learned that star Sam Heughan will make a surprise appearance at L.A. Comic-Con on October 31, 2026.
The news comes as he embarks on a U.S. tour to promote his beverage brand, Sassenach Spirits.
It’s been almost six months since the final episode of Outlander ... and Sam Heughan is doing something big.
On October 13, fans learned that the actor will make a special appearance at the 2026 L.A. Comic-Con. From October 31 to November 1, attendees can join the “Sam Heughan Experience,” consisting of meet-and-greets, panels, and a whisky tasting from his beverage company, Sassenach Spirits.
An Instagram post laid out everything Sam has planned for the weekend.
“The Sam Heughan Experience schedule is here!” the caption read. “Experiences are limited and may sell out.
