We're capping the event and using a tiered pricing system, just as in the past. Last year we sold out! We're keeping the Choose Your Rate option available so those people who like to support the event, especially the scholarship fund, by paying the higher rates can still do so. You may select which available rate you'd like to pay, and thank you to those who support the scholarships! Last year we were able to support multiple people with varying levels of support!

All registrations allow you access to any open event spaces beginning at 4pm on Thursday, March 4, 2027 through Noon on Sunday, March 7, 2027. Special event meals are an additional charge.

  • 1st Tier Pricing - Ends at 11:59pm on Sunday, November 15, 2026
  • 2nd Tier Pricing - Ends at 11:59pm on Thursday, December 31, 2026
  • 3rd Tier Pricing - Ends at 11:59pm on Thursday, February 18, 2027

After February 18, 2027 registration will be closed. Registration requests made after February 18, 2027 will be considered solely at the Registrar's discretion. No guarantee is made you will be allowed to register after February 18, 2027. No at-door registrations will be allowed.

Hotel registration: There will be registration info for the hotel on your confirmation page. We sold out early last year on the main hotel. 

Updates are best found on our website on the Discord announcements/FAQs channels. 

Refunds: We do not offer refunds. If circumstances happen outside of Event control (such as another public health emergency), we will transfer your registration to the next year's event automatically, free of charge. If there's a chance you might need a refund, we recommend adding Purchase Protection to your registration, see details below. If you add Purchase Protection, you will need to seek refunds through that company, which is separate from the Event company. We cannot guarantee how much of the attendance fee will be refunded by that company. 

NOTE: There is a base administrations fee of $8.00. As you make your selections the fee will rise accordingly.

You must be 21 or older to attend this event!

I understand that per County rules, TG must hire external security but that TG does its best to vet that security.

Finally, I understand and agree that TG may revoke my Event registration without refund and remove me from the Site if I behave in an illegal, dangerous or disruptive fashion, if I am in possession of illegal devices or substances, if I violate the Event Rules or the Event Terms of service, or if I refuse to follow the instructions of the Site or Event Staff during a declared emergency.
