Just wanted to post a reminder that our $25 early-bird preregistration rate will be ending in a month on October 1, 2011. After October 1, preregistration will move up to our standard $30 rate which will run until April 6, 2012 when it closes.

You will still be able to preregister for No Brand Con XI next May for our $20 at-con rate at our ambassador table and room party at Geek.Kon at the Madison Marriott West in Middleton, WI from September 9-11 and at our table at the Eau Claire Comics Hobby Expo at the Metropolis Resort in Eau Claire, WI on Saturday, September 17. These will be the last two times we will be offering our cheapest preregistration rate, so be sure to take advantage if you’ll be attending either of these events!

Geek.Kon is just a week away! We hope to see everyone there!

The No Brand Con staff will be hitting the road once again in two weeks heading to Geek.Kon at the Madison Marriott West in Middleton, WI the weekend of September 9-11. Geek.Kon has very similar roots to No Brand starting out on the UW-Madison campus their first couple of years and then moving into their current facility back in 2009. This will be Geek.Kon’s 5th convention overall and we’re very fortunate to have the strong working relationship with their staff as we currently do.

No Brand Con will be running room parties on Friday and Saturday nights as well as being in their ambassador area. We will again be offering our $20 at-con preregistration special for No Brand Con XI next May which saves $5 off our current online early bird rate of $25 which runs until the end of September. This will be one of the last times we’ll be offering our cheapest preregistration rate, so be sure to take advantage if you’ll be attending Geek.Kon! And as always, you can follow us on Facebook and Twitter for convention updates!

We wanted to thank everyone who stopped by Carson Park on Saturday for Nerdstock! It was one of the most successful yet and we will definitely be doing another one next Summer!

Time moves on though and with Summer coming to a close, it’s time to start looking to the Fall. The No Brand Con staff will be busy planning for No Brand Con XI next May like usual and we will begin making announcements and opening up submissions for various aspects of the convention as we head towards the end of the year. This will also be one our busiest Falls yet with several events and conventions we will be running and attending in the coming next few months.

Our Fall 2011 road schedule:

Geek.Kon – September 9-11, 2011 at the Madison Marriott West in Middleton, WI
EC Comics Hobby Expo – September 17, 2011 at the Metropolis Resort in Eau Claire, WI
STEAK VI – October 7-9, 2011 at the UWEC Davies Center in Eau Claire, WI
Animeland Remonedo – October 28-30, 2011 at the Ramada Mall of America in Bloomington, MN
Daisho Con – November 18-20, 2011 at the Ramada Stevens Point in Stevens Point, WI

We’re looking very forward to all of these upcoming events and hope you’ll check out some of them if you get the chance! Also, feel free to follow us on Facebook or Twitter for convention updates!

A handful of the No Brand Con staff will be attending Anime Iowa at the Coralvile Marriott Hotel in Coralville, IA this upcoming weekend of July 29-31. We were unable to obtain a booth at this convention, but we will still be making our $20 at-con only registration special available to those interested in registering for No Brand Con XI next May. Feel free to e-mail us at our contact@nobrandcon.org address or post on our facebook wall or shout @ our twitter and we will contact you back with our hotel room information where you can meet up with us to register for No Brand Con.

Hope to see everyone there!

We just wanted to thank everyone who stopped by our tables at AniMinneapolis and WausaubiCon this weekend! We also wanted to thank the great staff of both conventions who let us come in this weekend to promote the con.

We’ll be posting a small video report for both conventions here in the next couple of weeks as well as an update of what convention we’ll be heading to next!

And as always, you can follow us on Facebook & Twitter for convention updates if you can’t always check the main site!

It’s convention time once again! We’re heading to our first stop on the Road to No Brand Con 2012!

Our staff teams will be hitting the road today heading to both AniMinneapolis at The Northland Inn in Brooklyn Park, MN and WausaubiCon at The Plaza Hotel & Suites in Wausau, WI! If you’ll be at either of these conventions this weekend, stop by our table and you can preregister for No Brand Con XI next May for just $20! We’ll also be running a few deals on our convention merchandise, so be sure to pick up that “Is My Roommate Dead?” Stick you missed out on at our last convention this past April!

And as always, you can follow us on Facebook & Twitter for convention updates if you can’t always check the main site!

We want to make sure everyone has multiple options when they pre-register for the convention, so we’re happy to announce that our 2012 mail-in registration form is now online! You can find and download the form by clicking here or find the link to it on our Attendee page.

The same rates you’ll find online are also on the form. It’s $25 to pre-register before October 1, 2011 and then it will move up to $30 which will run until April 6, 2012 when pre-registration for the 2012 convention will close. You can also pre-order the 2012 convention t-shirt for just $10 too!

This does not affect the $20 special we will be running at upcoming conventions at our promotional tables. You will still be able to receive that special discounted rate, but only at our designated tables at the conventions we announce we will be attending. The mail-in registration form is just to give everyone an additional option for registering for the convention on top of doing so online through paypal. We will also be uploading our sponsor packet soon too, and we will announce when that is online in the coming weeks.
