Who is ALL-CON?

True to its name "ALL-CON" is the multimedia event that unites fans from diverse interest communities under one roof, for four exhausting days that are fantastic and fun. Fans of science fiction, art, costuming/cosplay, literature, collectibles, anime, short films, Otaku, gameshows, celebrity guests, contests, pageants, discussion panels, workshops, and performances will have their whole weekend filled at the single event.

What is ALL-CON?

Imagine a 4-day festival where a person could sample and participate in the finest content that many different communities and conventions have to offer. ALL-CON fills the entire venue with exhibits, workshops, discussions, game shows, performances, and competitions. The selection of activities changes every hour from the start of the day until 2:00 a.m. on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday nights and until 4:00 p.m. on Sunday.

ALL-CON offers the core structure expected of most conventions. The vendor room and exhibit halls have 80 booths and tables.

With over 300 different choices to offer in one weekend, ALL-CON has a set of headlining features around which the convention is constructed each year. Thursday is our free day, open to the public. The traditional Cosplay competition and Rocky Horror Picture Show shadow casting performance are Friday. Saturday has a ball jointed doll mini-con, Ms. Star Wars pageant, Maid contest, Texas Hold'em poker tournament, Costume contest, professional burlesque performance, and a themed dance. Sunday's signature is an overall super hero theme, ending with the Super Hero Sunday competition.

The rest of the two hundred and ninety-plus events are a combination of ALL-CON supplied content (like our many game shows throughout the weekend), performances hired by the convention, and a recipe of the best community run features that change year-to-year.
