Hotels

You can now book your room at the Doubletree!

Head over to the Location page for more information on booking your room, including the booking link. Not to be confused with a linking book. Maps and such of the hotel and con room will be coming soon!

If you need to split costs by sharing a room, consider posting in the #looking-for-people channel on our Discord server.

Submissions Reminder

A quick reminder that submissions are still open for both shirt and pin designs. Be quick, though, because they are both due by February 27th!

There is still some time for event submissions, and those are still open as well! Do you enjoy diving into the various animals in the Myst universe? Or you have an idea for what your dream Age would be like. Maybe you enjoy cooking and have thought of some recipes that the people of Riven might enjoy. So if you have a fun idea you’d like to share, please submit it!

That’s all for now, but we have more great stuff in the works that we will be sharing with you soon.

It’s Beginning to Looks A Lot Like Mysterium…

Everywhere you go…

Mysterium is coming up quickly and there are a few important things we need to share with you.

Registration Cap

First, registration is capped at 250 people this year. We are approaching that number now, so if you intend to come but have not yet registered, now is the time! All of the information regarding registration can be found here. If you know you are no longer able to attend, please reach out to us so we can account for you and avoid turning any more people away than we need to.

Hotel Deadline

The deadline for the hotel is very soon. If you do not have a room booked by May 28th, you will not be able to get a room in our room block or at our special Mysterium rate. There may be other rooms in the hotel available, however we cannot offer nor guarantee any special pricing for those rooms. If there are any issues with availability of the room type you are looking for before the deadline, please reach out to Odo to see if any more rooms of that type are available.

Again, the deadline is May 28th. There are no exceptions to this deadline.

Swag Deadline

The swag deadline is June 3rd. While there will be a limited number of swag items available to purchase at the registration desk, it will be first come, first served basis.

If you’re interested in placing an order for items ahead of time with your registration, please do so before June 3rd.

Listening Aids Update

Due to lack of interest, we’ve decided to not rent the listening aid devices this year.
