Big Bad Con always has a huge offering of TTRPGs, playtests, LARPs, boardgames, and panels. In addition, Big Bad Con hosts a few weird and beautiful events throughout the weekend that defy these categories, called special events. In the past this has included events like the Big Bad Fashion Show and Dino Karaoke.

Do you have a special event in mind? The special events team wants your submissions! Below are some tips and guidelines if you’d like to submit a special event to us:

The team is looking for fun community events where everyone can participate! Performances without a participatory component don't have a strong audience at Big Bad, but if events involve the entire crowd we'd love to have them! Please note that due to the Public Health Policy, we cannot hold events where food and drink is served.

Crafting get togethers (fiber arts), karaoke, or poetry readings (ones that aren't secretly bingo!) are events we have loved, which we don’t have (yet!) this year.

We have a variety of spaces across the convention, from panel rooms to the Poolside Pavilion.

Event submissions, including special events, are open until July 31st. You can submit your events HERE.

This year you can look forward to The Big Bad Masked Masquerade from special goal guest Nala J. Wu and Tokyo Music Station II: Return Trip from con staff Andy Munich.
