Happy Halloween!
We know it got a little snowy up here in Minnesota, but we hope you have an excellent day ahead of you!
While we’ll have much more to share in the coming months, take a look at some of the upcoming deadlines and updates for CONsole Room 2024: Bigger on the Inside!

POLICY UPDATE: COVID-19 POLICIES FOR 2024
The health and safety of this fantastic community continues to be at the forefront of our minds. Please make sure you have reviewed our updated 2024 COVID-19 policy so that you know what to expect when our convention arrives. Thank you for your continued support of our convention and community!
Learn more about our updates on our Policies page.
GUESTS: SNEAK PEEK AT TWIN CITIES CON
We have more guests to announce, but we’re sharing a sneak peek at Twin Cities Con this weekend (November 3-5) first! Come visit us at table T18, then stay tuned on social or here on our website for announcements in early November.
REGISTRATION: VIP MEMBERSHIPS END ON DECEMBER 3
VIP memberships are a great way to amp up your CONsole Room experience with exclusive access and goodies. Because of this, there’s only a limited number available and the registration window for VIPs ends a little earlier than our other memberships.
Learn more about our VIP memberships and other registration options on our Registration page.
HOTEL ROOM BLOCK IS OPEN!
CONsole Room returns to the HILTON MSP AIRPORT/MALL OF AMERICA HOTEL and our room block is currently open!
Staying at the hotel is a great way to help the convention, but also gives you a home base for the weekend, a place to watch virtual panels, and easy access to local amenities
Staying at the convention hotel puts you within arm’s reach (so to speak) of everything the convention has to offer, cozy and relaxing hotel amenities, and more.
Our room block is open until a couple weeks before the convention or until full, whichever comes first. Book your home away from now!
Learn more on our HOTEL PAGE or go to the HILTON HOTEL WEBSITE to book your room now.
VOLUNTEERS NEEDED: JOIN OUR CONVENTION COMMITTEE

Some of the roles that are currently open can be found below:

We’ll be sharing all kinds of updates, announcements, and Whovian fun over the coming months while we ramp up to our 11th annual convention.
