ConBravo! FAQ for December

Mark P. Tjan — Mon, 07 Dec 2009 08:04:55 +0000

Since we’ve been peppered with some questions as of late, it’s only right that we take the time to provide some answers! Here’s a brief FAQ for those of you wondering what’s going on at ConBravo!, what we have planned, and what you can do to get involved!

Q: Will there be a discount pass for younger fans?
A: Yes. We will have pricing in the near future for fans younger than 13, accompanied by a guardian.

Q: Will there be video games?
A: Yes, gaming is a huge part of what we’re doing. Both days will see many gaming events, with the bulk of them coming in during Sunday. This will include classic gaming, tournaments, and lots of freeplay. We’ve got some really neat features in the works, so keep an eye out for those!

Q: Will there be tabletop gaming?
A: Yes, absolutely. Tradable card games (TCGs) will play a huge part in our gaming events on Sunday. We’ll be running a poll in the near future to determine which card games we bring to the table.

Q: Will there be guests?
A: Yes. We can’t comment extensively on who’s coming as our guest list isn’t complete yet. We can say for sure that Team JAVEX, a high-profile cosplay performance group from Quebec will be opening our masquerade, and you can count on the Live Action Mario Party crew to be running a double feature at the convention.

Q: Will there be cosplay events?
A: Yes! We urge everyone to come out to the Masquerade on Saturday night to participate. We’re going to have prizes for exemplary costumes, as well as short skits. Details on the Masquerade will be coming shortly!

We hope this answers some of the more pressing questions you may have had. If you have any further inquires, please leave us a comment below, or contact us using our e-mail form!
