Explaining MidSouthCon Tickets

Posted onAuthorCullen Johnson

Paid tickets are required for the banquet and fantasy ball, and can be bought at registration. These are sold as Merchandise online in Tabletop Events.

Tabletop Events allows you to get tickets for events such as panels and games. We are not charging for event and game tickets. Ticket-holders are prioritized over walk-ups for scheduled boardgames and rpgs. However just because a game shows as full doesn’t necessarily mean it’s full. If you want to play, please check in person if you can’t get a ticket – the dice may smile upon you.

For all other panels and events, online tickets are purely for you to keep track of your schedule, and us to gauge interest so we can continue give you relevant and engaging programming. We don’t check for them at the door, so please don’t let a “full” panel or lack of ticket keep you from coming.

We look forward to seeing you!

MidSouthCon 41 Is Almost Here!

Posted onAuthorCullen Johnson

The countdown is officially underway—MidSouthCon 41 begins Real Soon Now! In just a few short days, fans of science fiction, fantasy, comics, gaming, science, horror, anime, costuming, and more will gather for an unforgettable weekend of panels, art, gaming, and fannish fun.

As we prepare for the convention, online badge sales have now been suspended so that we can finalize, print, and laminate attendee badges in time for the weekend. This helps us make check-in faster and smoother once the convention begins.

But don’t worry if you missed the online registration window—badges will still be available at the door when the convention opens. You’ll be able to register on-site and join us for all the excitement.

MidSouthCon 41 will feature:

  • Hundreds of hours of programming
  • 24-hour gaming all weekend long
  • A fantastic Art Show and Charity Auction
  • A well-stocked Dealer’s Room
  • Our legendary Masquerade costume contest
  • The always-popular Con Suite with snacks, drinks, and a place to relax with fellow fans
  • An incredible lineup of guests, panelists, artists, and creators

Whether you’re coming for the discussions, the games, the costumes, the art, or just to spend the weekend with your fellow fans, we can’t wait to see you.

So finish those costumes, pack your dice, charge your camera, and get ready.

MidSouthCon 41 is about to begin. 🚀

See you very soon!

Pssst – I’ve got a secret to tell you!

There’s a way to get double credit for volunteer hours at MidSouthCon 41. You already know that if you volunteer you can qualify for discounts on your badge, along with other swag.

But you didn’t know that your time counts double if you volunteer – in advance – to work setup on Thursday, March 19 or teardown on Sunday, March 22! We need able bodied people on Thursday to help get stuff out of storage and into the truck, unload and set up at the hotel, then tear it all back down again on Sunday afternoon, load it back on the truck, and put it back into storage! No experience or equipment necessary!

All you need to do is apply to be a volunteer at https://tabletop.events/conventions/midsouthcon-41/volunteers/apply. Once approved, be sure to request one – or more! – of the load in and load out shifts and your time will count double!
