Let’s get it out of the way. The dates you need to know are November 4th and 5th. The place is the Austin American-Statesman building located at 305 S. Congress Avenue. The event is of course MondoCon 2017!
Ok, now let’s get down to the Nerdy details. As in past years, MondoCon is a celebration of all things Mondo, which of course includes movies, art, comics, music, toys, food, and much more. It’s one of the few conventions we go to where the fans are truly the focus and you can meet your favorite artists, buy amazing art, see fantastic films, and most importantly hangout with likeminded Nerds.
For our fourth annual MondoCon, we really wanted to enhance the fan experience and our connection to the city of Austin. We’re so excited to find a new home at the Austin American-Statesman building. We’ll be taking over the space that used to house all their old printing presses and think it is going to create a truly unique environment for the weekend’s activities. This year, we’re thrilled to be hosting our evening screenings at the Alamo Drafthouse on South Lamar. The Lamar Drafthouse was home to Mondo for many years and we are so glad we can offer our fans the opportunity to enjoy a film in the world’s greatest theater. As for what to expect this year, we’ll be bringing out more amazing artists, panels, and products to accompany a weekend of eating awesome food, drinking great beer, and hanging with amazing people.
