If you're a gamer, you're going to LOVE ConNooga. Tournaments and open gaming galore in our 6800 sq. ft. gaming area! If you've ever walked into a gaming store and wondered about some of these games, we'll have Game Designers and reps teaching people how to play them.
We're proud to have
GameStop/EB Games as our sponsor for our Video Gaming room. All the latest systems along with the hottest new games! Plus we'll have tournaments hosted by
the 1337girls. If you ask nicely, they'll be glad to pwn you and make you cry.
15,000 Square Feet of Exhibitors, Artists, Authors, Celebrities, podcasters and Fan Groups!
Like horror? We're bringing in industry pro Leonard Pickel (co-creater of
Haunted Attraction magazine and founder of
HAuNTcon) to run all of our horror related programming.
For the Anime fans, we will have an entire area devoted to all things anime and manga along with a kickin' dance PLUS our first annual Anime Music Video contest!
We're pleased to have Manga artist
Chris Hazelton - artist of A Steel Wing Shattered with us. Also, cosplayer extrodinare,
Kelldar (Kell Yarwood) along with LadyK will host panels on everything ranging from creating a costume, to playing the part.
With a 500 seat theater at our disposal, it seems only fitting that we have a FanFilm contest as well! In addition to that, we will be premiering (at least) two new feature films (more on this later).
Workshops, panels, contests, kids programming, and much, much more....
