AcadeCon 2025 will be the 13th Annual AcadeCon event hosted by The RPG Academy. The dream of AcadeCon grew from the desire to have a weekend of gaming where gamers of all types would be welcome. Our motto: Gaming with friends, old and new!  As we are able to make definitive plans they’ll be shared here as well as on our Facebook page and twitter account.

AcadeCon the 13th will find us leaning into more horror themed games and events but as always we’ll be family friendly and support ALL games and gamers.
