This year we are excited to bring the NOVA Open to a new venue in the heart of DC, the Washington Hilton!

NEW ADVENTURE AWAITS!

We are proud to announce a new chapter of NOVA Open history as the 12th annual convention comes to DC at the spacious Washington Hilton hotel.

The team is hard at work preparing the events schedule, so check back and watch the Newsletter for announcements.

Sales Launch March 1st 8:00 PM EST

In an effort to avoid some congestion in the cart this year we are staggering badge and ticket sales by 30 minutes. Badge sales go live at 8:00pm and event tickets go live at 8:30pm on March 1st.


What's New This Year

In addition to a new venue, this year we are trying a few new things:

We have increased the number of Dwarf Nova badges (weekend badge + NOVA Open goodies)

We are launching two new one-click passes:

  • 40k GT One-click Badge - Includes your weekend badge, 40k GT ticket, convention t-shirt, and guaranteed ability to reserve a deluxe 1 King bed room room
  • Age of Sigmar GT One-Click Badge - Includes your weekend badge, convention t-shirt, AOS GT ticket, and guaranteed ability to reserve a deluxe 1 King bed room room

Simplify your registration experience by grabbing one of these badges while supplies last!
