Dream Con
September 12, 2024
At Dream Con, we’re all about celebrating the intersection of gaming, anime, and culture — and there’s no better day to do that than World Gaming Day on September 12th! This global celebration is a chance to honor the passion and community that gaming brings to millions of people around the world.
Why National Gaming Day Matters
Gaming has evolved from a niche pastime to a global force that shapes industries and connects millions of people worldwide. World Gaming Day highlights the power of this movement by celebrating all aspects of gaming — from retro classics to virtual reality. It's a day to appreciate the artistry, storytelling, and innovations that make games such a powerful medium.
At Dream Con, we embrace this spirit of innovation and community. Our convention is a celebration of gaming’s inclusive nature, providing a space for fans of all backgrounds to come together and share their experiences, whether that’s through competitive tournaments or casual sessions of multiplayer games.
Dream Con’s Commitment to Gaming Culture
As a Black-owned convention, Dream Con is also dedicated to pushing for greater representation and diversity within gaming. The industry has come a long way, but there’s still more to be done in ensuring that gamers and creators of all backgrounds are seen, heard, and valued. We’re passionate about making sure that everyone has a seat at the table, celebrating creators who reflect the world we live in, and encouraging the next generation to bring their talents to the forefront of the industry.
We invite you to celebrate National Gaming Day with us by playing your favorite games (card, board, or digital), supporting indie developers, and continuing to level up!
