KapCon XIV - the Big Ten-Four

KapCon is New Zealand's biggest and most regular annual role-playing convention, and is held in New Zealand's Kapital city (Wellington) over Wellington Anniversary weekend each year.

For KapCon XIV in 2005 this will be Saturday 22nd and Sunday 23rd of January. Monday 24th is a statutory holiday for Wellington workers and can be used for recovery.

KapCon is always trying to encourage people to run games for us. Go here to find out what you need to know! If you need a copy of the KapCon Flyer click here.
