The program is now finished!
Full description of the program items will follow or see who is on the program.
Friday the 31st
Meet and greet: 17:00-20:00
We set up the con and hang out and talk. Everyone is welcome even without a ticket, so if you just want to say hi, now is a good time. If you want to volunteer to do some light and easy jobs, we need help preparing the badges, hanging posters, setting up chairs and a bunch of other jobs that requires no experience other than a willingness to move things. If you need to set up a booth, now is a great time. If you are new to Fantasticon this is a really great opportunity to meet the crew behind the convection as well as other convection-goers.
We are probably going out to find something to eat and a drink together afterwards and you are welcome to join us.
