Daisho Con 2011 was the most fun we've had yet running a convention. We've put a lot of work into making 2011 our best convention yet, and we know that it wouldn't have been possible without our great guests, artists, vendors, and you, the con attendees! We've roughed through one of the biggest challenges that a convention can ever face, and your positive energy helped make Daisho Con 2011 possible!
Can't wait another year for Daisho Con 2012? Don't worry! We'll be running room parties at other conventions, and many of our staff member run panels and events at local conventions. Make sure to stop by our table to get the best deal for Daisho Con 2012 registration!
Of course, you can always join the fun on our Facebook page, Twitter, and forums to keep involved over the year and even help us think of great new ideas for 2012! Also, if you're on deviantArt you should join the Daisho Con Fan Brigade! We're constantly uploading new fan art and official Daisho Con artwork to our deviantArt, so stop by and join!

We'll also keep our front page updated with other really important news, including dates for next year and even more! Keep in touch! We'll be around!
The day is here! We are now mere hours away from Daisho Con 2011!
Many of you are packing your bags now to prepare for the trip down to the Kalahari, but we just wanted to give you a few reminders:
If you have any questions about anything at the conference, don't hesitate to ask a staff member! We'll all be wearing staff shirts throughout the convention, and we're here to help you out with nearly any issue!
Secondly, don't forget to support our vendors and artists! Our vendors and artists have lots of interesting collectibles, treats, toys, clothes, prints and many other things, so make sure to spend some time taking a look around!
Thirdly, respect the rules and policies! We built our rules to keep everyone safe, so if you don't get a chance to attend opening ceremonies you should at least read over them in the guidebook.
And, most of all, have fun!
Of course, for breaking news, follow us on Twitter and Facebook!
If you passed out for a day and a half it would be Daisho Con! We highly suggest not doing that though. For now watch this informative video on registration and you!

We had one simple request: Cosplayers with frickin' laser beams attached to them.
What our colleagues told us was impossible is now a dream turned reality. You too can now hold the immense power of laser technology as you hunt down your friends and enemies!
Daisho Con is announcing our laser tag tournament! Two teams enter the laser-tag arena, one will come out victorious. Do you have what it takes to achieve victory?
We've added tons of new information to our events page. We're very happy with the events and panels that we have planned, and we think you'll be just as excited as us! Check it out!
Also, we've added our Action Room waiver! If you're under 18 and want to participate in the Action Room, you'll definitely want to print one off, have your parent sign it, and bring it to the con. We do our best to keep the action room safe, but if you plan on challenging Aussie or Jeff in a boffer fight, wouldn't you want to be safe?
