FlatCon 25th Anniversary

FlatCon will return to The Interstate Center in Bloomington, Illinois October 9th-11th 2026!

Located on the expansive prairie that is Central Illinois, FlatCon is Bloomington/Normal’s premier family-friendly and inclusive tabletop gaming event since 2000. FlatCon is presented by Tabletop Gamers for Good, a 501(c)3 registered non-profit dedicated to supporting local charities while also promoting tabletop gaming. All profits after expenses from the convention go to support local charities chosen by attendees during the three days of FlatCon.

You'll find a tabletop game you like at FlatCon.

Some of the games we typically host include:

• Pathfinder and Starfinder
• Dungeons and Dragons
• Warhammer 40K and Fantasy
• Aerodrome
• Mega Lego battles
• So many other RPG, miniature, board and card games!!

We also have an amazing FREE game library!

While you're at FlatCon, you can check out games from the library to play with your friends. Also, don't miss out on the Play-to-Win section, where you can try out new games and potentially take them home! Each time you check out and play a game from this section, you'll be entered into a drawing for a chance to win that game. It's a fantastic way to explore new favorites while having the exciting possibility of adding them to your personal collection
