Early Bird sales are officially in progress!
If you’ve been waiting for the best time to lock in your KantCon plans, now’s the moment. Early Bird pricing is available for a limited time, and it’s your chance to grab badges and packages at our best rates.
While you’re planning ahead, be sure to keep an eye on our other important dates—especially as we head toward event submissions and signups. You can find the full schedule of deadlines and milestones here: https://www.kantcon.com/#dates
Introducing the New VGG Badge
We’re excited to announce a brand-new badge option this year: VGG!
VGG stands for Very Generous Gamer. This badge is designed to extend the VIG experience to more attendees while leaning into one of KantCon’s core values—community generosity. Instead of including a custom game, the VGG badge includes a Game It Forward badge, allowing you to share the love of gaming with others. It’s a great way to treat yourself and make a difference at the same time.
Early Bird Packages & Merch Deals
Early Bird isn’t just about badges! Our Early Bird special packages bundle badges with exclusive merch at a discount. If you’ve had your eye on KantCon shirts or dice, these packages are the best values we offer all year.
Starting April 1, 2026, a standard online badge will be $70 on its own. Early Bird lets you lock in that price now—and bundle it with merch and prize tickets at a steep discount.
Early Bird Dice Bundle — $70 Includes a badge, 10 prize tickets, and a KantCon dice set — a $89 value for the price of a badge alone.
Early Bird T-Shirt Bundle — $80
Includes a badge, 15 prize tickets, and a KantCon t-shirt — a $104 value and one of our most popular picks.
Early Bird Game On Bundle — $95
Our best deal! Includes a badge, 20 prize tickets, a dice set, and a t-shirt — a $128 value for gamers who want it all.
These bundles are only available during Early Bird, and once they’re gone, they’re gone. If you like prize tickets, merch, or just getting more KantCon for your dollar, this is the time to jump in. https://www.kantcon.com/product-page/early-bird-exclusive-badges
Hotel Blocks Are Open
Travel plans coming together? Our hotel room blocks are now open, making it easy to stay close to the action at a discounted rate. Rooms do fill up, so we recommend booking early once your plans are set.
We are still working to secure additional hotel options, so be sure to check back for updates. If you try to book and find that rooms are full, please let us know! We can often request additional rooms based on demand, and your feedback helps us make that happen.
Call for Game Masters: Starts Next Month!
Finally—Event Submission opens on March 1st, and now is the perfect time to start brainstorming. Whether you’re thinking about running a roleplaying game, a board game you love, a tournament, or something delightfully unexpected, we can’t wait to see what you bring to the table.
Start sharpening those ideas—KantCon is powered by the creativity of our community.
