Revelcon Panels

Curious about what we talk about at Revelcon? This is the slate of panels Jan, our Panel Mom, put together based on input from our members for Revelcon 32. Along with traditional panels, you’ll see panels with a video component, games, and activities for those who like to craft.

Panels and special event programs for Revelcon 33 will be put together closer to the convention based on input from our members. In the meantime, check out the programming for Revelcon 32 to get an idea about what happens at Revelcon. If you have questions about our programming contact panelmom@revelcon.com.
