Note, the publicly available schedule does not contain links. Check your inbox for a message from regadmin for your virtCon access. Then expand any item on the schedule there to see the links when they show up. They will be available for a month once we get processed, typically until July.

VIRTUAL MEMBERSHIPS ARE STILL AVAILABLE! The con may be over, but as soon as they're processed, the virtual panels, pending any tech issues, and the panels from the hybrid rooms: main events, Federal Hill, Homeland, Gibson & Kent will be available for rewatch.

Reminder, if you are near our Pratt Street building, we started unloading a little afternoon and could use some fresh hands.

Words cannot express how much I already miss my Balticon comrades. I cannot wait to go again and do panels!! And yeah, seeing someone get excited over your book is the bomb. Thank you for your hard work, great efficiency, and all-around (and all night!) boss programming @balticon.bsky.social

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

Find the game tables THROUGH the bar, past the buffet. Right to left are RPGs, Board Games, and Video Games. #Balticon #rpgs #boardgames #videogames #gaming

Luckily, Balticon has so much going on, there's no reason to leave the hotel once it kicks off! ;)

When checking out the schedule and weighing between events, remember that some of the rooms are in-person, some are pure virtual, and some are HYBRID! The virtual rooms are labeled clearly, but as for the Hybrid rooms... #balticon #sff #convention

Hey, #balticon fans! How goes the packing? Have your switched the laundry to the dryer, yet? Costumers, you really should start in 20 minutes ;) If you're a fan of #scienceFiction #fantasy or #horror in any media, and in the #baltimore area, join us this weekend for over 1500 hours of programming.

Looking forward to seeing you again. What's your favorite donut flavor?

Scheduling is always like 6 dimensional juggling. Thank you for putting up with our best attempt. We figure it's like scheduling all your day-job meetings on one day, so you can party the rest of the weekend. (Or, you know, get work done, in the analogy.)

Balticon & the Baltimore Science Fiction Society @balticon.bsky.social · 22/05/2025

Looking forward to seeing you. (We're excited about those panels.)

Balticon & the Baltimore Science Fiction Society @balticon.bsky.social · 22/05/2025

We'll be happy to have you -- fox or no. Especially if the cake isn't a lie. ;)

Balticon & the Baltimore Science Fiction Society @balticon.bsky.social · 22/05/2025

Looking forward to having you back! (and hearing your views on commas) (no. really. Not sarcasm. We have... opinions.)

Balticon & the Baltimore Science Fiction Society @balticon.bsky.social · 22/05/2025

I hope you have fun with us! There's a First Timers & Friends meet'n'greet/tour on Saturday at 11am if you need help orienting yourself. We'll have snacks.

We're excited to see all our old friends and hoping to make new ones! See you soon.
