Another GothCon is over. Yesterday we cleaned out the last of the schools and headed home after a fantastic weekend.

Thanks to everyone who makes GothCon possible - visitors, organizers, officials - together we make Easter the best holiday of the year!

During the weekend, we had a record number of events at the convention (137) and speaking of records, it is worth mentioning again how much money the auction brought in for the Children's Cancer Foundation: SEK 11,748.

This year we opted out of having dormitories in a more distant school in favor of having everyone more together and to make it easier for our night staff. All with good results.

Having the cafeteria open at night also continues to be a success.

We awarded the prize for convention promoter of the year to Tebaren, which for many years has spread and continues to spread warmth and love.

There were approximately 2,300 people in attendance at GothCon over the weekend. People who played, talked, laughed, worked and shared the gaming hobby with us. Thanks to everyone who came and we sincerely hope to see you again next year!

The logo contest for GothCon 2025 has been decided and the winner is Marcus Gabriel Fors with "Flying Teddy"!

Thanks to all visitors, organizers and etc for a Good Con!! 😁🥳

Here are the results from this year's auction!

Turnover: SEK 66,770
Number of calls: 396
Money for the children's cancer fund: SEK 11,748 - a new record!
