Debrief: Dragon Con 2025 Atlanta, GA – August 28 through September 1, 2025 Dragon Con 2025 has come to an end. Despite being a busier year, it seemed a lot lower key and easier to manage than in previous years. Attendance was reported at 75,000, up 3,000 from last year. That attendance number was capped by badge sales, and traffic management felt much better this year. Those 75,000 fans did a…

Debrief: Dragon Con 2024 Atlanta, GA – August 29 through September 2, 2024 Dragon Con 2024 is done and dusted, and like 2022, it was an experience of highs and lows. Attendance was reported at 72,000, which is higher than the 65,000 from 2022 and was definitely felt in the heavier traffic. I still like the idea of an attendance cap around 70,000. As usual, we did a lot of good charity work this…

Debrief: Dragon Con 2022

Debrief: Dragon Con 2022 Atlanta, GA – September 1 through September 5, 2022 Boom! Dragon Con 2022 is in the books! And it was an experience of highs and lows. Attendance was reported at 65,000, and while it was definitely higher than the 42,000 from 2021, it was still pretty manageable. The big issue was the convention’s pandemic precautions (or lack thereof… more on that later), but I could…

Dragon Con 2022 Atlanta, GA – September 1 through September 5, 2022 Dragon Con! It’s an annual tradition for me. It’s also a family reunion of sorts as I catch up with dear friends from around the world. This year will be my (lucky) thirteenth time attending and my (lucky) seventh year as an attending professional. If you plan to be there, you can find me at various over Labor Day weekend…

Debrief: Dragon Con 2021

Debrief: Dragon Con 2021 Atlanta, GA – September 2 through September 6, 2021 Just like that, Dragon Con 2021 is in the books! And, wow, it was a weird year. Attendance was reported at 42,000 and you could definitely feel it. Thanks to the pandemic precautions – proof of vaccination or negative COVID-19 test along with a 100 percent masking requirement – and attendance caps (including limits on…

Dragon Con 2021 Atlanta, GA – September 2 through September 6, 2021 Dragon Con! It’s an annual tradition for me. It’s also a family reunion of sorts as I catch up with dear friends from around the world. This year will be my twelfth time attending (counting last year’s virtual events) and my sixth year as an attending professional. If you plan to be there, you can find me at various over Labor…

Debrief: Pop Pop Con Con

Pop Pop Con Con October 16 through October 18, 2020

Last weekend was Pop Pop Con Con, a free virtual convention hosted by Shaun and Laura Rosado of PopCycled Baubles.

Three days of geeky discussions helped to fill the gap of conventions cancelled by the global pandemic, and it was a really fun event overall.

All of the weekend’s panels can be found on the PopCycled Baubles YouTube channel, and…

Pop Pop Con Con October 16 through October 18, 2020

I’ll be contributing to another genre convention this year.

With the global pandemic, so many fan conventions have been cancelled. The fun of great conversation and hanging out with friends is something that I miss. In an effort to help fill that gap, Pop Pop Con Con will be happening over the weekend of October 16-18, 2020.

Pop Pop Con Con is…
