Acadecon’s Incredible Sponsors for 2025
AcadeCon is Dayton’s own 3-day Tabletop Gaming Convention. Held Annually in early November at the Dayton Convention Center and hosted by The RPG Academy podcast Faculty and Friends. AcadeCon is truly a passion project for Michael and the rest of the Faculty and Friends who volunteer their time each year. Thank you for being here with us. Our only goal each year is to play games and have fun.
