Program

U-Con is a community-driven convention.  We host a wide variety of events, most of which are led by individuals from the community.  Anyone who wants to run a game may submit an event through TTE.  Then the convention organizers arrange the events into a schedule, which will be posted in August.  You are our primary source of games and entertainment, so please consider becoming a gamemaster in order to bring your favorite games to U-Con.

Scheduled Events

• Board and Card Games – features all sort of table top games.
• Miniatures – war gaming, both historical and non-historical including Warhammer.
• Roleplaying – features all roleplaying events submitted by independent gamemasters.  These events have a great variety in game systems and styles.

• Special Events – gaming-adjacent events, including the Auction, seminars from our guests, meet-and-greets, and the Cine Mal Practice awards show.
