Room Parties are attendee hosted events featuring themed rooms, snacks and beverages, gaming and more.
A hotel room can be transformed into Hyrule, The Mushroom Kingdom, or Azeroth. We’ve seem some amazing rooms including a fully themed fantasy tavern serving chili and brew.
Want to host a party?
Hosting a party is a great way to be involved with 2D Con and an amazing way to showcase what you can create.
Room parties go through a juried selection to ensure that the party fits the general theme of 2D Con, gaming. Non-gaming related parties are less likely to be accepted.
2D Con has a limit of 10 party rooms for 2024 as we move into our new venue.
Party rooms will be split into designated categories. Parties may have more than one category.
- Family Friendly – All ages rooms with activities
- 21+ – Rooms that will be serving alcohol
- Activity – Activities ranging from games to karaoke
Hosting a party counts as 2D Con volunteer hours and can grant access to our staff and volunteer suite.
Party hosts are eligible for comped badges to 2D Con, limited to 4 badges per room.
