🎲 What a Weekend

KantCon 2026 is officially in the books, and what a weekend it was. From the first game launched Thursday afternoon to the final prize drawing on Sunday, thank you for making this year one to remember.

📊 KantCon By the Numbers

This year, we broke records! During our 4 days of tabletop gaming Overland Park Convention Center, we tried to count up all the cool things that happened. We're grateful every single one of you chose to spend your weekend with us. Here’s a rundown:

1,140 - Attendees
14 - Game it Forward badges
607 - Scheduled Events
163 - GMs / Game Facilitators
65 - Volunteers
213 - Games won in Play-to-Win
352 - Prizes given away
800 - Pounds donated to Harvesters

We had the most events, Play-to-Win games, Prizes, and Harvesters donations than ever before. We grow because of your enthusiasm and connection to the gaming community.

🥫 Giving Back

To reiterate — your generosity fed our community. Together we donated 800 pounds to Harvesters. This is a HUGE record-breaking number for KantCon and we are so grateful for the generosity of our community! Not only that, but you paid attention to what was needed most and gave items a little more costly than average. Thank you for playing it forward!

📅 Mark Your Calendars for 2027

We're already dreaming up next year, and we'd love to see you there. KantCon 2027: July 29 – August 1, 2027. Same great venue, same weekend of games and fun. Exhibitor registration will start in November and Early Bird badge sales will kick off on February 1, 2027.
