NEW THIS YEAR: ConGregate has partnered with SAGA CON!
ConGregate 10 AND SAGA are both happening July 12-14, 2024 at the Downtown Marriott & The Embassy Suites in Winston-Salem, NC.
ConGregate was founded in 2013. A core group founded ConGregate Productions, Inc., which in turn ran the first ConGregate in 2014, in Winston-Salem, NC. This is a completely volunteer run con. Many staff members have over 20 years of experience in helping run various conventions throughout the southeastern United States. This con boasts interactive programming, in addition to traditional programming like panel discussions, gaming, concerts, a costume contest, and charity events. The nature of this convention allows the fans an opportunity to interact directly with the guests and other fans. For more information, please visit https://con-gregate.com/ . Also NEW this year – The Merry Mayhem will be hosting “Caftans and Caffeine” on Saturday morning! Wear your caftan or comfy clothes or even an all out Mrs. Roper cosplay. The best Mrs. Roper will win a prize!
The SAGA Genre Fiction Writers Conference features two days of workshops, and presentations from professional, published writers on the business and craft of profitable writing. SAGA blends the fun and camaraderie of a science fiction & fantasy convention with the educational opportunities of a writing conference. When you register for SAGA, you’ll receive a complimentary membership to ConGregate, and are free to attend panels and events in the con space when you’re not busy in SAGA workshops.
