This year, Con-G stepped into the 21st century with QR code ticketing!
Please display your ticket on your smartphone (be green!) or print it out and bring it with you when you arrive at Con-G to sign in.
Tickets were sent automatically as soon as your payment was processed (usually instantly) to the email you entered on the registration page.
However, if you did not receive your ticket (or if it went into your spam folder and was deleted), you can certainly still get into Con-G!
Bring along your payment confirmation, and we can look you up manually! The QR codes are for speeding up the pre-reg lineups and getting everyone into the convention faster, but they are not the only way. We can still rock it old-school!
We can’t wait to see everyone at Con-G tomorrow morning!!
DJ Janos, the resident DJ of ConBravo’s DanceBravo Saturday night dance party has been DJ’ing for the better part of a decade, helping to craft dancefloors all over the GTA, and more recently, at Montreal’s Otakuthon.
Although not a newcomer to DJ’ing, he is a newcomer on the Convention DJ scene, but has managed to turn every con-dance into a dance-frenzy.
His style of blending current dance music and staples of the con-dance scene have led to perfect dance parties each time.
His only goal is that of ensuring everyone has the best time possible. Every year he hopes to out-do himself, so we’ll see what he has in store for Con-G’s Dance Party this year!
He’s been getting ready for Kon’s Dace Party, and he’s a little teaser mix of what he’s got in store for you!

Little is known about the Savage Bandito’s origin… because if anyone asks they are treated to a long, boring story that truly doesn’t make any sense.
The facts: he appears like a rotund puff of smoke and leaves comedic videos and photos in his wake.
Somehow he’s made over 150 episodes of The Savage Bandito Show and will likely shoot like 5 more at Con-G.
Tom will be making a guest appearance at Con-G Season 4, February 25-26, 2012.

Con-G guest Christian Potenza makes a visit to a friend’s tiny little office. You may have heard of him; a certain famous YouTube personality by the name of FLuffee!
That’s right, both Christian Potenza and Fluffee will be appearing at Con-G this year! Woo! Come on out and see them both (plus all our other super amazing guests!)

Kudrel is a Master level cosplayer and costume accessory designer from Ottawa, Ontario. She got into cosplaying back in 2004; attending the first AC-Cubed, and has been hooked ever since.
She’s won over 10 awards for her costumes including Best in Class in several divisions and Best in Show. She has also had the pleasure of starting her own line of costume accessories called Steampixie.
She strongly wants to inspire other cosplayers to push their limits and not be afraid of being different. Cosplay is about having fun and empowering yourself. It’s about being an artist and being free to accomplish anything and everything.
Oh, and one last thing: Caffeine and anything purple are her most favourite things!
Kudrel will be making a guest appearance at Con-G Season 4, February 25-26, 2012.

With just over a week to go until Con-G Season 4, we’ve just received word that the Holiday Inn is now SOLD OUT for Saturday night. Wowzers! Every room in the place is booked for Con-G!!
If you haven’t booked your hotel room yet, you can still get the special Con-G rate at the Best Western Royal Brock Hotel & Conference Centre, a 15-20 minute walk or a 10 minute bus ride from Con-G using the new Route 6.
$93/night
single/double occupancy
Hot breakfast included
Mention Con-G for the special rate.
716 Gordon Street
Guelph, Ontario N1G 1Y6
(519) 836-1240
If you are planning on walking from the Best Western, bring along a plastic bag and wear your boots instead of your cosplay shoes! Put your boots (in the plastic bag) in our coat check for the day ($2 per item) so you don’t have to worry about them.
Of course, you can always try to bribe convince a friend with a room in the Holiday Inn to let you share.
