Any decision regarding the 2021 convention, in regards to COVID-19, will take place closer to convention - once we know more about things like the availability of the vaccine(s).
What is ConGregate?
ConGregate is a completely volunteer run, speculative fiction convention held in the Piedmont Triad region of North Carolina.
We host a fair amount of interactive programming, in addition to traditional programming (like panel discussions, concerts, a costume contest and charity events). The interactive nature of our con allows fans an opportunity to interact directly with the guests and other fans. In other words, we're a lot more than just a large exhibit hall filled with vendors and guests.
