GaymerCon is the first gaming and geek lifestyle convention with a focus on LGBT culture.
On August 3 & 4th, 2013, we will gather together to create a fun, exciting weekend of gaming, geek culture, tech talk, development, and even some partying. GaymerCon is open to all and we hope to make an experience that will be meaningful as well as exceptionally exciting and fascinating.

Why GaymerCon?
“Gaming” is gargantuan, billion dollar industry – and despite its enormity, there still lacks an outlets for alternative gamers in the world. It is equally as hard for publishers to connect with and reach out to that audience.
Gaming is a common shared experience that helps us escape, educates us and helps to define who we are and want to be.
