North America: 2015 Meetups


ctrl-alt-delete's avatar
Since it seems difficult for people to plan meet-ups from state to state, here's a list of USA and Canadian locations where you may already be attending some large gathering. Why not meet people who are already going? :)

For the year 2015, list any upcoming convention, expo, gathering, etc. that already exists that you plan on attending. Include the following in your post, and I will add it to the list:

  • Event Name
  • State/Province
  • City
  • Month


If the event is already listed, I will increase the attendance count next to it throughout the year. If the event has passed, I will mark through it.

This list is not comprehensive, but rather an at-a-glance guide. If you want the exact dates, times, website, etc. for the event, please search for it online or message other attendees.

Comicon and Connecticon should also be listed. Comicon will be held at Mohegan Sun, and CTCon is at the Convention Center. I can get the dates.

The Help Desk said posts can only be edited within the first 24 hours. I can't do much more myself, so people will have to just post and scroll to read if we want to keep this North America thread going. Sorry, guys.

Sorry, guys. Apparently I've already exceeded my limit of edits to the original post because I'm only seeing the "Hide Comment" option now. I didn't realize the edit limit was a new thing. I've put in a Help Desk ticket to see if there's anything I can do to continue updating the top post.

I think we should host the Wisconsin Meetup in Green Bay.

They have a very nice convention center.

are we listing things that already have a planned meetup or not?

The conventions in themselves are meetups, but by listing how many people from dA are going, those people can then meetup as a smaller group with a similar interest.

Since it seems rare that many dA meetups pan out due to time or distance, I thought I'd create this for people who will already be in the same place at the same time. Makes it easy!
