Events

The events are what sets a convention apart We want these events to be awesome for everyone! As a result, these events are subject to change based on what you tell us in the forum and please volunteer if you are interested. There is a section in the forum entitled events. Give us suggestions and ask questions! We will do our best to cater to your whims.

Masquerade
The Masquerade will be on Saturday at 7:30. Greenroom opens at 7:00 pm, Signups will be at the Registration/Info desk on Saturday until 5:00 pm.
For more information, please see the Masquerade page.

Dance
Like to dance? Like Jpop? Then come on down to the ConG dance. Our vast collection of anime music will allow requests.
Water will be provided. Boogie down from 10 pm to 1 am.

Anime Squares
Ever see Hollywood Squares? It works like this: there are 9 squares with Hollywood actors and two contestants that are either X or O. The contestants choose an actor and the announcer reads them a question. They answer and the contestant has to decide if they’re correct or not. If the contestant guesses right, they get the square. They win the game when they get a tic-tac-toe row. Now imagine it with anime characters. Sound like a riot? That’s what we thought.

Survival Checkers
Everyone has seen cosplay chess but chess can be a little dull for an anime convention. Checkers, on the other hand, involves leapfrog. Everyone can play!
