We're thrilled that Big Bad Con is right around the corner! Before you head out to the con, please review our COVID-19 and public health safety requirements:

1. Pack your COVID-19 Vaccination Records

We're happy to accept vaccination records in any form (physical card, picture of your card, apps, etc), however we require proof of vaccination before entering the con. So please make sure to pack that card, take a pick, or check your app before you head out the door.

2. Test before you head out

Please take a COVID test before you get to the con (preferably 24-72 hours before) and confirm that you have a negative result. We'll have rapid tests available (for free) to anyone who needs them, but supplies are limited so please pack them if you have them!

3. Vaccination Check - First thing to do when you Arrive!

Before doing anything else at the con, check into the Vaccination Screening station. It is located just inside the double doors near the main entrance. Here's a map for directions.

At the screening station, they will ask for your proof of vaccination and to confirm that you've taken a recent COVID text and confirmed you were negative.

4. Mask that provide KN95 or better protection required

We require masks in all convention spaces that require KN95 or better protection. Those include KN95, KF94, N95, and many of the more advanced masks (like Flo masks). The following mask do not provide enough protection against recent variants and so they are not sufficient:Cloth masksSurgical masksFace coverings with exhalation valvesMesh materialsCostume masksFor more on our mask requirements, see our public health policy.

Now is the perfect time to go buy or order masks so they are available in time for the convention. Big Bad Con will have some convention branded masks and COVID tests available, but supplies are limited.

Very excited to see you all at the con. Thanks for everything that you do to help keep yourself and everyone else safe!

Best,

Sean and the Big Bad Con Programming Team
