Today, July 1st 2026, has officially been designated as “Anthrocon Day” by the Mayor of Pittsburgh! We are deeply grateful for our partnership with the City of Pittsburgh, Allegheny County, and the numerous partners that helped make this happen for the past 20 years 💛🖤 #LovePGH

A friendly reminder from our Safety team: we do not allow attendees wearing tactical or tactical-style gear, or any accessories that may be perceived as real. Props brought into the convention space must also be inspected and peace-bonded.
