No Brand Con 2019

Guest Announcement: Lewis “Linkara” Lovhaug

Leave a comment

We’re happy to announce our next guest for 2019, Youtuber Lewis “Linkara” Lovhaug!

Lovhaug is the host of Atop the Fourth Wall, where he talks about the worst comic books ever created while fending off robots, mad scientists, and demon glitch Gods from other dimensions. He also occasionally talks for way too long about a show that adapts footage of people in spandex fighting rubber-suited monsters in his retrospective series “History of Power Rangers” (when he’s able to keep it on youtube due to ContentID claims, at least).

Announcing Our Daisho Con/Black Friday/Cyber Monday Sale!

Leave a comment

This upcoming weekend Daisho Con will be taking place in the Wisconsin Dells, but unfortunately our No Brand Con road show won’t be there this year. We know that’s disappointing to a lot of you, since it’s one of the few places attendees have been able to take advantage of our $20 road show rate. We really don’t like disappointing our attendees though…

…so we’ve decided to offer it to you online instead.

That’s right — During Daisho Con 2018 we’ll be offering our $20 preregistration rate online. That rate is usually only available online during our annual Black Friday to Cyber Monday sale. Of course, with Black Friday only coming up a week later, we’ve decided that rather than have the price go up for a few days in the middle, we’ll just extend the sale for the week inbetween!

All you have to do to take advantage of this rate is go to our online registration page between November 16th and November 26th and take advantage of the rate!

Panel Submissions Now Open For No Brand Con 2019!

Leave a comment

Panels are always a bit part of any No Brand Con experience. Whether you want to plunge into in-depth analysis of your favorite series, hear bizarre industry stories you’d never expect, or just want some cosplay tips, it’s the a great way to spend your time. Many of our panels are actually provided by our attendees just like you too.

Fan run panels often provide the highlights of the convention, and we couldn’t do this without them. We also consider time hosting a panel as “double Volunteer hours,” which means hosting an hour long panel counts as two hours of volunteer time.

If you’re interested in submitting a panel for No Brand Con 2019, you can head on over to our Panels page. There you’ll find the rules along with our online submission form.

We’re excited to find out what you want to do!

The twelfth Geek.kon just outside Madison, WI is upon us, and the No Brand Con Road Show is going to be there with bells on! Okay, maybe not with bells… but at least pants?

We will totally be wearing pants!

As always, you can find our team in the Ambassador Alley this weekend (Aug 24-26), where you can preregister for our $20 road show rate. We’re excited to see everyone who might stop by, and we think it’s going to be a pretty great time!

Leave a comment

No Brand Con staff is hitting the road again, this time to Kitsune Kon in Green Bay! We’ll be there today, Saturday and Sunday in the Ambassador Alley ready to take your preregistration for No Brand Con 2019. As always, this will be at our Road Show Rate of only $20, which is the best price you’ll ever find for our weekend badges.

We really hope to see you there!

We’ve also now opened registration for Sponsorships for No Brand Con 2019. While we love all of our attendees, when you become a sponsor you get access to the No Brand Con VIP treatment. Benefits of sponsorship include early access to the vendor room, an exclusive meet and greet session with our guests, a gift bag of No Brand Con goodies (including this year’s shirt), priority seating at major events, and more! Sponsorships cost $85 and, as always, are limited to just twenty-five.

But, honestly, whether you opt for our most expensive or cheapest membership options, we’re just excited that you’ll be coming this March.

We know it’ll have been just two weeks since No Brand Con 2018, but we’re hitting the road to promote No Brand Con 2019 already!

That’s right, we’re going to Anime Central in Rosemont, IL. You’ll be able to find us in the vendor room at booth CT05 in the visiting convention section!

Now as many of you know, we always bring our lower roadshow preregistration rate when we go to other cons, but because this is how we’re opening the doors for No Brand Con 2019 — we’re going to offer it to everyone.

That’s right, not only will preregistration open on Friday morning, but through the weekend we’ll be offering it for just $20! That’s ten dollars off the normal online price, and the best deal you’ll find for a weekend badge. All you’ll have to do is head over to our preregistration page and take advantage of the amazing deal Friday through Sunday!

Thanks For A Great No Brand Con 2018!

Leave a comment

We had an amazing No Brand Con 2018, and we hope you enjoyed it too! We had some great guests, a ton of fun, and as always our attendees remain some of the most awesome and fun(n) people around.

We know it’s hard to come down from the excitement, but if you came to the con this year, please consider filling out our No Brand Con 2018 Attendee Survey. We’re always trying to make the convention better, and we want to know what your thoughts were about how we did and how we can make next year even more amazing.

Speaking of next year, it’s coming sooner than you’d thing! We’re excited to announce that No Brand Con will return to the Chula Vista Resort in the Wisconsin Dells a bit earlier next year — March 29th-31st 2019.

Get that down in your calendars, because it’s going to be a blast!

No Brand Con 2018 starts tomorrow, so we’ve decided to put the No Brand Con 2018 Program Guide online! Inside you’ll find everything you expect — guest bios, panel descriptions, a map of the convention center, and of course an arcane puzzle based around the mechanics of goblin traps.

You think we’re kidding, but we’re not.

And remember, if you still want the slimmed down version, you can always just load up our basic schedule on Google Sheets instead. Either way, the fun starts tomorrow!
