DashCon 2's Pre-Registration Event
We have more details about the pre-registration event! You can find them linked on our website. Pre-registration means you can come and pick up your badge/any relevant materials (e.g. your voting token) the evening before, skipping the line.
DATE:Â July 31st, 2026
TIME:Â 4:00 PM â 8:30 PM
LOCATION: Wilket Creek Park Picnic Area #4, 1000 Eglinton Ave E, North York, ON M4P 1E2
Weâll have a large multicoloured flag with the DashCon 2 logo on it identifying our picnic spot :)
As a reminder, the pre-registration event is a Cosplay Picnic and Little Guy Show-and-Tell.
You are invited to dress up in cosplay and bring snacks/packed lunch to eat on the grass. DashCon 2 will have some pre-packaged fruit and veggie plates for you to sample, but we donât expect supplies to last, so please bring your own food if youâd like to eat!
In cosplay or not, we encourage bringing a little friend to introduce to folks around! Itâs a great conversation starter. Examples of Little Guys include stuffed animals, crochet plushes, rocks with googly eyesâany inanimate object that brings you joy and you want to introduce to other people. Please do not bring live animals.
For many of you, DashCon 2 might be your first convention. But even veterans might benefit from the tips & tricks Con-Going Crash Course, an all rounder guide to attending a convention. This video is currently available on our Youtube for you to watch to get an idea of everything you need to know/consider for attending a convention!
An absolutely massive thank you to Cinnacorn and Duskroads for the tremendous amount of time and effort youâve put into this. Your efforts are greatly appreciated!
As some of you may have noticed, although itâs pretty late now, today is July 5th, the official one-year anniversary of DashCon 2.
It hasnât felt like a year, reallyâtime moves so much faster now.
Iâm a different person now that DashCon 2 is in my life. Event planning is my career now. I have new friends, a small but not inconsequential internet presence⌠and when I go to friendsâ weddings, sometimes my reputation precedes me??? Absolutely shocking to get hit with I like your shoelaces completely unironically IRL.
As an organizer, I can never truly attend DashCon 2. That day was a blur of adrenaline and Monster Energy. I was building a castle Iâd never walk inside. So I feel DashCon 2 through the contoursâthe effect it has on other people. Through you.
I am beyond grateful for all of you. Sometimes I rewatch the montage of the ending dance party, with the headbanging Miku circle, and I cry. Iâm being serious. The greatest joy of my life is getting to make all of you happy.
Rock on, Mikus. Happy Anniversary.
