Attendee-run panels and workshops are the backbone of any convention. We have an awesome line-up of fan presented panels & workshops throughout the weekend, from veterans & DerpyCon rookies alike. You’ll find panels putting your favorite shows to the test, sharing history of important films, diving deep into the comics of new & old, and just having a grand old time laughing at who knows what.

If you’d like to host a panel at DerpyCon, our Panel Applications are Available Here.

Give a stop by our Tabletop Room, where you’ll find board games to play, space for opening card gaming, some Dungeons & Dragons-themed playthroughs, Magic The Gathering and Yu-Gi-Oh TCG gaming meetups, Catan qualifiers, and much more.

Wander around long enough and you’ll find yourself in Video 9 3/4, where our viewings will be happening throughout the convention weekend. This year, we are bringing out anime content, both new & old, and a throwback to some legendary horror B-Movies that will get you ready to scream (in excitment!). Screenings will be running all weekend long.

Take the convention fun online with a whole flight of panels to enjoy. We have a full programming track of panels available as part of DerpyCon Online. Head on over to the DerpyCon Online room to watch, or check them out on the website at www.derpycon.com/online.
