2021 REGISTRATION IS OPEN!

WE HOPE YOU CAN JOIN US IN 2021

We are saddened to report that GrandCon must announce its official cancellation for the 2020 year. Over the past several months, we have spoken on the possibility of GrandCon not being held this year on account of COVID-19 concerns. As we continue to navigate into a future of unknowns, we could not in good faith put attendees, exhibitors, and staff in harms way.

As organizers, we have kept a hopeful eye on developments as our country faces the pandemic. However, there still remain too many uncertainties at this time to host an event that is so dependent upon interpersonal interaction in large numbers such as ours.

In this regard, we really could use your help: If you’ve already purchased your badge and are willing to roll it forward to GrandCon 2021, it will allow us to stay afloat through these unpredictable times and come back better than ever next year. If you are able and willing to pursue this option, you don’t have to do anything, and GrandCon will convert your 2020 badge to a 2021 badge. Nonetheless, if you are unable to rollover your badge purchase, we get it. Information about requesting a refund will be emailed out to everyone in the very near future. Additionally, if you’ve booked a hotel room with the 2020 GrandCon block, your reservation will automatically be canceled without penalty.

We so wish circumstances were more favorable for GrandCon this year, but are confident in this decision. Because of tabletop players like you, we have had the honor of hosting fun in the Grand Rapids area for nearly a decade, and plan on being here for many years to come. You all matter to us!

We look forward to GrandCon 2021, scheduled for Sept. 3-5, 2021. We do hope you will be able to join us for great fun and fellowship then. GrandCon can't thank you enough for your all of your support and understanding during this time. Be safe and stay well!

Sincerely,

Your Team at GrandCon

What is GrandCon

GrandCon is Michigan’s premier tabletop gaming show held once a year in the city of Grand Rapids. It’s a 3 full day community experience and a place where several aspects of the hobby gaming industry are represented under one roof. We celebrate - board games, card games, family games, miniature games, and role-playing games. Our goal is to create a Fun-For-All-Ages show that appeals to everyone. A place where people want to play games!

Things to do

As an attendee, you are able to participate in charity events, paint and take events, scheduled game events, seminars, and tournaments. You can shop exhibitors and artists, cosplay (dress up as your favorite character), mingle with industry guests experience mega games and puzzle events, and even volunteer for the show. GrandCon has a games library of over 2000+ titles for you to play all weekend long too.

Who can come

The show is open to the public, meaning everyone is invited to come experience a weekend of exploring the hobby gaming industry and playing games!

Who makes this happen

Brian Lenz along with his wonderful team of volunteers work extremely hard to create this show for all of you and our surrounding communities!
