Room Party Application

Room parties go through a juried selection to ensure that the party fits the general theme of 2D Con, gaming. Non-gaming related parties are less likely to be accepted.

Room parties will be split into designated categories.
Room parties may have more than one category.

  • Family Friendly – All ages rooms with activities

Hosting a party counts as 2D Con volunteer hours and can grant access to our volunteer suite.
