Still Submit Events?

Hello! 

I just got my cleared to be able to go to the show! I have run events at Gencon for years and I love it.

I was so excited to see I can still submit. This late in the process are there any best practices I should follow? 

Thank you!

Your best bet is to review the tips page https://www.gencon.com/gen-con-indy/newgm and submit events as soon as possible. This is because events will keep being process and the earlier they are in the more time they are up as an event.

It is still possible to submit late events, but space is extremely tight, so you will want to keep your event fairly small-scale and avoid "prime time" on Friday and Saturday afternoon to maximize the chance for your event to be approved and activated. Late events are also lower priority as we focus on wrapping up details for events that are already active, so you will need to be patient with the process.

Thank you so much for the advice! I submitted my events for lots of different time slots. Hope something fits.

If you're interested in running your events with our group next year, send me a PM and we can talk details.  Sounds like you would be a good fit in our group.  :)
