Come see me at a free digital convention this weekend!
Hello everyone! I hope you’re doing well! As a last minute event, I’m joining Virtual Nerd Con, an online digital convention, free to enter!
This is a free event, but you still have to get a ticket from their eventbrite page!
Available here!
And, you have to download this program VirBELA-- normally meant for professional businesses to have online conventions-- now being used for a nerd con! Program free here!
Once you get your ticket on the eventbrite page, when the convention opens at 11 am EST on Saturday, they will send you a code via email so you can access where the convention is! There are even guests-- I’ve ran around a bit on VirBELA and I gotta say this is a surprisingly useful tool, especially last minute!
(Here’s an example of my ‘booth space’ at the convention using the VirBELA program! all the haircuts make you look like a karen, but, hey)
Voice chat is available, and for my own merch I have a huge coupon that only lasts this weekend on my etsy, with the code available inside!
25% off of a $45 purchase!
I’m really excited to have something even semi-normal going on, and I’ve already talked with a couple people in VirBELA, it gets an A+ from me! I’ll be here during all open hours (Saturday 11 EST to 3 EST and Sunday 11 EST to 3 EST), and I’m excited to see anyone who might be able to come by!
I also just restocked my etsy with new merch, which the coupon code given at the con can be used towards as well!
There are even guests, tournaments, and general fun hang out plans! I’ve talked with the people running it, who are doing so because they genuinely wanted a nice place to geek out and enjoy a con experience, while still being safe online.
I hope you’re all able to attend! For additional info, the main site about Virtual Nerd Con is over here!
