DC-Slash Con 2025 Update

[slashmommy]

 It’s hard to believe that DC-Slash Con will already be underway next Friday!

If you haven’t seen it yet, the full schedule is now available on our website:
 https://www.dcslash.org/dc-slash-con/programming/schedule

The schedule should automatically adjust to your local time zone. We tested it last night to make sure it’s working correctly. It's one schedule; no math required. Panels happen pretty much all day, and we’ve built in breaks every six hours to help you pace yourself. Some panels may occur while you're asleep (Sleep during a con? What?). That’s because we used the time zones and preferences you gave us during voting to shape the schedule as fairly as possible. We will be recording many of our panels. The exceptions are single fandom panels and 18+ panels.

If you haven’t joined the DC-Slash Discord yet, now is the perfect time. You can use this invite link, which is valid for the next seven days:

If you don’t already have a Discord account and need help setting one up, please email us at concom@dcslash.org. Much of our discussion and some programming happen on Discord. All attendees are given the Con Attendee 2025 server role, which will unlock special channels next weekend. All those who have registered can be identified by the P.Lot Bunny graphic that should appear next to your username.

We’ll hold two tech check sessions today at 14:00 EDT and 18:30 EDT to help everyone get comfortable with the platform. Feel free to join whichever one works best for you. If you need the Zoom link, please contact concom@dcslash.org

More information will be coming your way as we get closer to opening day. Registration is still open, and we do have a few scholarships available. Please help us to spread the word. The wonder of a virtual con is that we have space to expand and include more fannish voices! The more attendees, the merrier.
