STAY HOME, STAY SAFE, HAVE FUN!

We Bring The In-Person Convention Experience To You.

Fan events of every type including workshops, concerts, conferences, film festivals, readings, audience Q&A, job fairs, book clubs, and more are all now within your reach.

AllAccessCon was founded in late 2019 on the principle of making live events accessible to everyone regardless of their location, economic background, or disability.

Now, with the advent of social distancing, this goal is more important than ever for us, and for you.

Welcome to the future of your fan event experiences!

OUR LATEST EVENT

…John Edward Lawson unveiled his plan for a Con that would give people who could not go to traditional cons access to one via Indiegogo.

As soon as I read the description, I knew it was something that I personally needed to support and I had the honor of being the first backer for the program.…As someone who has psychological, physical, and monetary limitations myself, it was a pleasure to hear this from John. It emphasized to me that this project is coming from a place of deep desire to help all of his fellow bookworms connect in a way that is more comfortable and accessible.

Event Innovation

The team behind AllAccessCon has brought decades of experience organizing live events, live streaming, and hybrid approaches to the virtual summit space. Instead of broadcasting canned summits that fail to be interactive experiences we have invested in an interaction-rich environment that mirrors a real-world convention.
Attend keynotes and discussions at our Main Stage, take part in workshops and roundtables in our Sessions area, connect with other attendees and experts in rapid-fire 1-on-1 random meetings at the Networking area, and tour the Expo area to explore vendors booths,
Our wide range of expertise, interests, and network of experts allows us to deliver fresh content unlike other event organizers. If you have any suggestions or requests please do let us know. This may not seem like a genuine request, but several of our events have come about by attendee demand or even began as jokes on Twitter.
We are uniquely positioned to partner with real-world event organizers to bring their functions online.

While I’ve been involved in countless events over the decades — from performing readings, running mini-conventions and workshops, or assisting with the programming for large regional conferences — I always struggled with psychological, physical, and monetary limitations on my ability to fully participate.

After a while, I got to wondering: how many people are there out there like us, or worse off who we’re not even reaching? What if we could double the number of people participating in our events by simply bypassing geographic limitations, and performing outreach to groups typically unable to access conventions and similar events?
