Health & safety looks way different too! We made sure it was clear how folks can get the best con experience possible based on their own personal threat model. You can check out that context here: kawaiicon.org/health-and-s...
Health & Safety - Kawaiicon 2025
We wanted to make sure that everyone had all the information they needed to make their own risk assessment on 'if' and 'how' they attended the con.

If you get peckish, we will have coffee/tea in the venue and Rock Yard parked right outside the front doors serving up some delicious Vietnamese food.
Otherwise, walk literally in any direction and surely you'll find something.
