Remember, you can include our mascot, Wallace, if you wish. Submissions don't have to be new work; if you have something already made which fits our Wild West theme, Howl at High Noon, we'd love to see it! Send it to the address below by December 1st!

We're grateful to receive any artwork submissions, but right now we're most of all on the lookout for banner art and transparent PNGs. Banners must be at a minimum resolution of 3000x6000px, while transparent PNGs can be of any size and aspect.

Hey everyone! Every year we're proud to showcase the artwork of our community around our convention and in our conbook. We've already had some great submissions for 2026, but we're still open for more until we close on December 1st. Send your submissions to the address below!

While you cannot apply to enter the Dance Competition as both a solo dancer and as part of a group, you are welcome to apply for both Dance Competition and Beatdrop Beatdown entry - one does not affect the chance of you being selected for the other. See you on the dance floor!

To enter the events, use the following forms: Dance Competition, Solo Performance: https://t.co/QaMyd3sg45 Dance Competition, Group Performance: https://t.co/UZ9RAHCyry Beatdrop Beatdown: https://t.co/gWL50XyipQ Applications close at the end of Tuesday December 2nd!

This year our Dance Competition is offering a contest for group performances as well as solo dancers! Due to capacity those dancing in groups cannot also appear as solo performers, so choose carefully. Rules and guidance for both events is available here:

Hi folks! Applications are now open for the two dance events in 2026, our traditional Dance Competition and Beatdrop Beatdown, the freestyle dance battle returning for its second year! Read on for more information and details on how to apply to appear on our dance floor!

As always, you'll be invited to donate some or all of the proceeds to our charity, please give generously! If you have any questions, please reach out to our friendly Art Auction team at the address below and they will be happy to assist you! Good luck with your sale!

You'll need to agree to our Art Auction Terms & Conditions, which will be shown as part of the pre-registration process and also in the Art Auction room at the convention. Remember, pre-registration is not "first come, first served" so take the time to read them carefully.

Items can also be registered at the convention during the Friday Auction Registration slot, but we highly recommend pre-registering to ensure we have space to display your item. Pre-registered items should also be brought to the Friday registration session to be put on display.

Howdy folks! Do you have an item that you'd like to sell through our Art Auction? Pre-registration for items is now open! Head on over to https://t.co/0DSVEU2aey to register the item that you'd like to sell.

In the meantime, we are still open for applications for new volunteers to join our Events team until October 31st - see our earlier announcement post for details on how to apply!

During this process all proposals will be locked and cannot be edited. If you need to change anything in your proposal, either reach out to the Events team mailbox at the address below or speak with your Events team contact if one reaches out to you.

Ultimately, everyone who has made a pitch via our events system will receive an email informing them if their pitch has been accepted. We anticipate that these will be sent by mid-December at the latest. As always, we will try to fit as many of your proposals as we can!

Our Events team is now reviewing each proposal and may reach out to understand more about certain events as they work to assess each pitch, determine what is plausible to run, and how they may fit in the schedule. Don't worry if you don't hear from them immediately, though!

Hi folks! Now that we've closed for event and DJ set submissions, it's time to look ahead and give those of you who have made a pitch an idea of what comes next in the process. First of all, thank you! We've had more submissions than ever before for our 2026 convention!

Applications for events and DJ sets are via our dedicated system at https://t.co/jYUtLGTtiR and if you have any questions you can get in touch with the Events team at the address below - but be quick!

Hey y'all! Thanks to everyone who has pitched an event or DJ set so far. There's been a lot of interest but if you're still waiting for the perfect moment, submissions are only open until Sunday October 26th!

Applications will be open until October 31st, but we'll review applications as they come in. Shortlisted applicants will be invited to have a chat with us about the role to see if it's a good fit for you. We're looking forward to adding a number of you to our team this year!

If you're interested in either of these roles and would like to help us put on a shindig this year, please send us an email to the address below to apply. Please write a bit about yourself, what you like about the role you're applying for, and why you'd be great at it.
