Unpub Updates
Ben Begeal
We wanted to take the time to update everyone on the status of Unpub and our plans for the rest of the year.
Unpub 2021
Unfortunately, we were not able to work with the hotel to reschedule for any dates later this fall and we will not have an in-person Unpub convention in 2021. All current badge and table holders will be pushed forward to 2022. If you would like a refund rather than having your badges pushed to 2022, please email info@unpub.net and we will take care of this for you.
Unpub 2022
Unpub 2022 is still scheduled for May 19-22, 2022. The event will again be held at the Delta Hotels Hunt Valley and Elizabeth Hargrave is still slated to be our special guest for this in-person event. More information including badge and table on-sale dates will be released later in the fall.
Since we still aren’t able to meet in person, we’re excited to announce that we are hosting our third (3rd = Non3pub, get it??) Nonepub online playtesting convention!
Non3pub will take place Thursday, June 10th through Sunday, June 13th, and will include all of your favorite Unpub Games Festival activities, with None of the in-person of a traditional convention.
We will have dedicated playtesting slots, seminars, panels, speed pitching, feedback frenzy, open playtesting, and more!
We will continue to refine the Nonepub experience based on after-convention feedback, and we hope to bring you the best-unpublished con we can this summer. Panels and playtesting will be scheduled so they don’t overlap. We will have one playtesting block each day, at 5 hours. We hope this block size allows for ample time to get more than one play-through with different player sets and gather some useful feedback.
We are delighted to announce our Keynote Speaker for Non3pub is Calvin Wong Tze Loon!
We will again have reserved tables during the blocks as below:
Friday Designer Badge (15) ($20): Includes access to all events and a dedicated playtesting table in one of the 5 hours blocks Friday, June 10.
Saturday Designer Badge (20) ($25): Includes access to all events and a dedicated playtesting table in one of the 5 hours blocks Saturday, June 11.
Sunday Designer Badge (20) ($25): Includes access to all events and a dedicated playtesting table in one of the 5 hours blocks.
Playtesters will again be free
