Talking to one of our volunteers/attendees, Jenny says that: "Balticon is one of those cons that's enough. So many cons aren't quite long enough, but with the extra day, #Balticon is actually enough."

We are already starting to pack up. You've got a little time to duck 🦆 into the gaming rooms and dealers room before they close for good. We're not quite ready to say goodbye, but the end is nigh. #Balticon
