What is JonCon? Great question! In a nutshell, it's a pop-culture/gaming/comedy convention created by
ComedyCity's Jon Bruinooge that started as a one-man virtual event during the pandemic summer of 2020. It started just for laughs, but became a real live event the following summer. Now onto year three, JonCon is bigger and better than ever. You're all invited!
The three day event includes a convention-style cosplay panel, Rock Band karaoke, a photo scavenger hunt, a preview of two Rogue Comedy Month shows, a Magic: The Gathering tournament, open-gaming, and more!
Here are some notable JonCon featured events:
Friday, July 29 @ 8 PM - A special preview of a new ComedyCity Show, Control Issues (4 comedians play Mario Party with unexpected added challenges)
Saturday, July 30 from 12 PM to 2 PM - Meet and greet with the 501st Wisconsin Garrison, a group of local Star Wars cosplayers. This portion of JonCon is free and open to the public!
