MisCon returns with a new location at the Missoula Fairgrounds with the theme “Hive of Scum and Villainy” featured all weekend with panels, speakers, games, art show, contests and film festival.

MisCon is a 4-day celebration of fantasy, science fiction, horror, gaming, cosplay, and anime.

Through discussion panels, hangouts, games, readings, craft demos, and workshops, we bring fans together with authors, artists, game designers, actors, costumers, and other professionals in the world of speculative fiction.

View and buy art from our Art Gallery, watch our film festival submissions, participate in our Costume Contestplay RPGs, board games, LARPsMagic the Gathering, and check out what our Merchants are selling. Whatever your interests, MisCon has something to fascinate, educate and entertain you.

Detailed weekend overview:
Thursday is our setup day.

Campers can check in that morning, although we will be setting up the campground and don’t have a definite time you can get set up at your site.

Merchants will be able to set up indoor booths that morning no later than 11:00 am.

Everyone is welcome to come check out the fairgrounds on Thursday, and if you want to pitch in and help with setup, we’d love the help.

Pre-Registered attendees can pick up badges Thursday evening at our Registration Booth in the Commercial Building. We’re not yet sure when this will be for MisCon 39, but it’s always for a few hours in the evening. Once we know, we will update this.

Friday:

Registration officially opens at noon on Friday, although we almost always open before that. Before Reg opens, attendees are welcome to wander around the fairgrounds/buildings, to check things out, and to see people.

Panels (and everything else, really) officially start at 2:00 pm. Merchants will be open for business, Gaming will be set up and running in various locations across the grounds, the Cantina and other hangout areas will be open and ready for people, the Art Gallery will be lit and set, etc.

Daytime programming, indoor merchants, and the Art Gallery all close at 7:00 pm, just as Opening Ceremonies begin. Our GoHs and many panelists attend the OC, so it’s usually a good way to see/meet people.

Evening programming takes over at 8:00 pm, including parties (alcoholic and not), shows, music events, night gaming (gaming never stops throughout the convention), and more.

On Saturday everything opens at 10:00 am: panels, gaming, the Art Gallery, merchants.

Sunday has the same 10:00 am to 2:00 am schedule as Saturday with the same kinds of things happening throughout the day. The Art Auction happens Sunday evening, as does Nerd Prom.

Monday starts at 10:00 am. It’s our quietest day, since everyone is tired after three days of fun, but we’ve got all the usual stuff going on until Closing Ceremonies, which start at 3:00 pm. Most of the GoHs are still with us for Closing.
