Registration Process
When you arrive at BGG.CON, you will need to be aware of your BADGE NUMBER. Emails were sent within the last few days to all Badge holders showing their badge number and a QR Code. Emails were sent to the email address attached to the badge. If your email address is attached to multiple badges, please forward this information to the named individual so they can claim their badge. If you notice that a name on a badge is incorrect, please email events@boardgamegeek.com as soon as possible.
If you did not receive that email, check your spam folder, or you can find your badge number using one of the two following methods, if you are logged into Tabletop.Events:
- Click Attend>Get/View Your Badge > Click Badge Name.
OR
- Log in to TTE > Scroll to Conventions I'm Attending > Click on the Badge Name.
If you do not have a TTE account, you may need to ask the person that has your badge for this information.

Scheduled Events
While BGG.CON is centered around the BGG Library/(csv file view) and Open Gaming, we are seeing many great games scheduled and demo'ed even just within the last few days. Please check the schedule to see which ones you would like to join. Tickets/Seats at the table will remain open throughout the convention, so if you see an opening, check it out and see if there is room for you to join.
Some notes about Events
Event Hosts:
- Please check your event's list of attendees and if you are missing any names that you are planning on, email events@boardgamegeek.com to get them added.
