The Metaphysical, Holistical & Mystical Expo, created and produced by metaphysician Suzy Woo, is set to take place August 15–16, 2026, at the Ambassador Banquet and Conference Center in Erie, Pennsylvania. The event will feature a diverse lineup of nationally and regionally known speakers, performers, astrologers, paranormal investigators, and mediums, including extradimensional trance channel Toni Ghazi.
The expo, running from 10:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. both days at 7794 Peach Street, is part conference, part marketplace, and part immersive experience. Attendees can expect talks, gallery readings, demonstrations, live performances, and a marketplace with readers, healers, practitioners, and specialty vendors.
Woo, who is a metaphysician, holistic practitioner, credentialed healer, holistic psychotherapist, sound healer, astrologer, psychic medium, educator, and host of The Woo Factor podcast, said the expo represents her years of work in education, healing, curiosity, and community. “People can hear these personalities share their knowledge and experiences, then meet them personally, continue the conversation and explore their work,” she said.
One of the featured presenters is Toni Ghazi, founder of The Antarean Heart, an extradimensional trance channel known for his work involving what he describes as the Mantis Collective and other galactic beings. He has appeared on Gaia’s Beyond Belief and will be presenting at the expo.
Award-winning TEDx speaker, former hedge-fund manager, bestselling author, and prosperity coach Joel Salomon will present “Prosperity Energetics: Turning Your Gifts into Predictable Income,” exploring the connection between purpose, mindset, and consistent income.
Diane Trimbath, president of the Lake County Astrological Association and certified professional astrologer, will present “The Great Initiation, as We Enter the Aquarian Age,” considering what current planetary cycles may reveal about changing structures, emerging technologies, and collective consciousness.
Dr. Rebecca Nicholson will present “When Crisis Opens the Door: Moral Injury, Spiritual Crisis & Paranormal Experience,” examining the relationship between trauma, spiritual crisis, and paranormal experiences.
Featured paranormal personalities include historian, author, and investigator Tim Shaw and Daniel Klaes, owner of the Haunted Hinsdale House. Klaes is also an author, television and film producer, paranormal investigator, and historic preservationist.
Investigators Frank and Heather of the Haunted Western Block will film an episode of The Chopping Block during the expo. The show combines paranormal banter, history, true crime, and cooking as the pair prepares a dish for audience members to sample.
Rev. Marjorie “Chi Chi” Rivera, widely known as “The Pittsburgh Medium,” will offer readings. The Lily Dale-trained and ordained psychic medium and Spiritualist minister has served clients and students for more than 30 years.
Cleveland-area medium, paranormal investigator, and media personality Irene Achelois, along with fourth-generation psychic medium Gregory Nicholas and Tim Shaw, will perform gallery readings and be available for one-on-one sessions at their booths.
Multi-award-winning Australian musicians Harper and Midwest Kind Sound Healing will provide interactive sound-healing experiences both days.
The expo also includes additional psychic mediums, intuitive readers, astrologers, healers, wellness practitioners, authors, artists, and spiritual educators. The shopping marketplace will feature crystals, handcrafted jewelry, books, spiritual tools, wellness and bath products, artisan wares, make-and-take creations, and other distinctive items.
General admission includes free talks, select gallery readings, a paranormal panel discussion, and sound-healing events. Personal readings, healing sessions, and marketplace purchases are available separately. Admission is $10 for a one-day pass or $18 for a full-weekend pass. Tickets may be purchased in advance through the expo website or at the door.
Proceeds will support the development of You Are The Miracle Center for the Spiritual Arts, a 501(c)(3) charitable organization founded by Woo. The planned center will be dedicated to healing, education, creativity, community, and conscious living.
